That’s right, there is no scheduled time for the BOJ end of meeting announcement, it comes when they are good and ready (and when the sake bottle is empty).
Expect it sometime in the 0230-0400GMT time window, though. (More here: What time is the BOJ announcement due? And a preview of the announcement/statement)
In brief:
- Policy is expected to be unchanged
- I expect there will be debate on further easing, but that won’t be seen until October or December, the BOJ will likely wait to see Q3 data before taking steps for new easing measures
