BOJ outright bond purchases - 1 May 2018
- Offers to buy ¥450 bn JGBs 5-10 years
- Offers to buy ¥500 bn Treasury discount bills
- Offers to buy ¥50 bn JGBs up to 1-year maturity
Just to keep note of. The BOJ has pledged to maintain its purchase amounts for May, and should continue to do so as 10-year yields have dipped again - sitting closer to 0.00% than it is to the usual intervention threshold of 0.10%.
