BOJ governor Kuroda still going on 26 Sept

Not as hard as it for us to keep listening to your repeated drivel

  • will keep buying bonds of various maturities with good balance to achieve desirable yield curve
  • BOJ policy won't change just because 10-year JGB yields slide to neg on daily basis

Elsewhere, or even in the same place (who knows or cares) a BOJ official says:

  • new policy framework does not mean it will take longer to achieve 2% price target
  • still committed to achieving 2% inflation asap
  • would like to see more govt policies to encourage wage gains
  • amount of asset purchases influential in ability to to control long term rates

Meanwhile USDJPY still clinging onto 100.50.
