Federal Reserve raises policy interest rate by 0.25%, marking first rate hike in 3 years and 2 months

On the 16th, the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) decided at the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) to raise the policy interest rate by 0.25% to 3.75-4.00%. This is the first interest rate hike in three years and two months since July 2023. In response to accelerating inflation due to high energy prices due to the deteriorating situation in the Middle East, the government changed its wait-and-see attitude. FOMC participants expect one more rate hike before the end of the year. The European Central Bank (ECB) decided to raise interest rates further on the 10th, and the Bank of Japan is also expected to raise interest rates by 0.25% at its monetary policy meeting on the 17th and 18th. The Fed's decision was unanimous, saying economic activity was strong but uncertainty remained high, and it was aimed at returning inflation to its 2% target.

Crude oil import volume in August increased by 3.6% compared to the same month last year, shifting from dependence on the Middle East to the United States

According to preliminary trade statistics for August released by the Ministry of Finance, crude oil imports increased by 3.6% from the same month last year to 11.59 million kiloliters. Import volume decreased from April to June due to the tense situation in the Middle East, but alternative procurement from the United States increased, and the volume exceeded the previous year's level for the second time in July. On the other hand, the trade balance was in the red for 1,0105.6 billion yen, the fourth consecutive month in the red, due to the continued high cost of crude oil procurement. The amount of imports from the Middle East decreased by 30.9% from the previous year to 7.25 million kiloliters, and the amount of imports from the United States was 3.65 million kiloliters, more than seven times the previous year. The import unit price of crude oil is 102,687 yen per kiloliter, the fourth highest level on record, and continued high costs remain an issue.
