Japan's July core inflation seen at 1.8% on higher energy costs

Inflation in Japan is expected to have increased in July. This rise is attributed to higher energy costs and faster gains in food prices.

The increase in inflation is also linked to cost pressures resulting from the war. Japan's core consumer inflation is likely to have accelerated from the previous month.

Further details on Japan's inflation rate can be found through Reuters, which reported on the expected increase in core consumer inflation for July.
