It might be a holiday (Good Friday) nearly everywhere else, but Japan is open today
Due at 2330GMT (note that time, its 20 minutes earlier than when we normally get Japanese data)
- National CPI y/y for February, expected is 0.3%, prior was 0.0%
- National CPI y/y excluding Fresh Food for February, expected is 0.0%, prior was 0.0%
- National CPI excluding Food, Energy y/y for February, expected is 0.8%, prior was 0.7%
- Tokyo CPI y/y for March, expected is 0.0%, prior was 0.1% (Tokyo CPI data is available a month earlier than the National CPI)
- Tokyo CPI excluding Fresh Food y/y for March, expected is -0.2%, prior was -0.1%
- Tokyo CPI excluding Food, Energy y/y for March, expected is 0.5%, prior was 0.5%
On the days we get the official inflation data we also get the Bank of Japan's own CPI measure. It's a 'national' CPI excluding fresh food and energy:
- expected 1.1% y/y, prior 1.1% y/y
- This is due much later, at 0500GMT
While it is a holiday, we'll have the data posted to ForexLive.
