So after all the frenetic speculation and massive market pressure, the Bank of Japan has held the line on its super-easy stimulus policy.
The BOJ will continue to buy bonds in whatever amount necessary to maintain its target for 10-year JGB yields at zero. The trading band remains at -0.5 per cent to +0.5 per cent, notwithstanding the fact yields have now nudged above the ceiling for four sessions in a row. Analysts still suspect the BOJ will again have to buy a record amount of JGBs this month to maintain the ceiling. The bank already holds more than half of all JGBs, and 80 per cent or 90 per cent of some bond lines, a major reason the yield curve looks out of whack and dealers complain endlessly of a dearth of liquidity.
