The Bank of Japan next meet on Tuesday September 20 and Wednesday September 21
Speculation is already hot and heavy on what they'll do. Which seems a bit early, but given the BOJ raised the September meeting in their last statement (we're gonna have a full review!) its not surprising.
The latest Bloomberg survey shows:
- 22 of the 33 analysts surveyed said the review makes an expansion by the BOJ more likely
- 28 expect the bank to retain its negative interest rate
- More than 22 of those surveyed expect the BOJ to change or delete the two-year time for meeting its 2% inflation target
