Sanae Takaichi assumed office in October 2025 as Japan’s first female prime minister and secured a commanding mandate in the February 2026 snap election, delivering the Liberal Democratic Party a two-thirds supermajority in the lower house—the largest postwar seat total for any party. This outcome, driven by strong personal popularity across age groups and support for her economic and security agenda, has sustained cabinet approval ratings near or above 70 percent through mid-2026. With no scheduled leadership contests or successful no-confidence mechanisms in the current Diet term, traders assign low probability to her departure before year-end, viewing the reinforced parliamentary position and absence of acute crises as structural barriers to an early exit.
