Economic calendar in Asia Friday, 21 April 2023 – Japan inflation data for March | Forexlive
March inflation data from Japan is due today at 2330 GMT, which is 7.30pm US Eastern time. Headline inflation is expected to have dropped, y/y, from February while core measures remain ‘sticky’. Bank of Japan Governor Ueda has been repeating that he expects inflation to drop from around September/October. There is a BOJ policy meeting next week and, so far, indications are that there will be no significant change. The ‘but’ on this is that the Bank of Japan has said it won’t be telegraphing policy moves in advance:
