Further comments from BOJ governor Haruhiko Kuroda at his confirmation hearing at the parliamentary lower house

  • No excessive activities in financial markets
  • BOJ may conduct next policy review in five years
  • No need to conduct policy review now
  • No chance of hyperinflation in Japan right now
  • Need to continue powerful monetary easing
  • Virtuous economic cycle is staring in Japan

Kuroda being ambiguous again with his comments, but the fact that he's not discounting the possibility of removing stimulus is taken as a sign by traders to prop up the yen at the moment.
