Economic calendar in Asia 23 December 2022 – Japan inflation data for November | Forexlive

Japan inflation figures at 2330 GMT. Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda has been insistent that the current high inflation level in Japan is transitory and will begin falling from around October in 2023. He’s also been insistent that any widening of the tolerance band around the YCC target to +/-0.5% from +/-0.25% was not under consideration since it’d basically be a rate rise. Then on Tuesday he widened the band and said it wasn’t a rate rise. Go figure.

As for the 2350 GMT minutes of the Bank of Japan October meeting. The very definition of stale, they are, after Tuesday’s announcement. I guess we can scour the minutes for any clues the December decision was coming.
