News for Bank of Japan (8301.T)

Corrections in the Yen and the unwinding of the carry trade is a positive development for Japan argues an expert investor who remains bullish on the market.

Here’s today’s The Match Out report from Market Matters’ James Gerrish. Key point: the S&P/ASX 200 (INDEXASX: XJO) finished up +0.36% to 7,703.20.

Here's the current market update by David Bassanese, Chief Economist of  Betashares: The S&P/ASX 200 (INDEXASX: XJO) is down 2.3% after a 1.3% gain in the previous week, and the S&P 500 (INDEXSP: .INX) is down 0.1% after a 0.3% loss in the previous week.

Bank of Japan has been most notoriously known for its ultra-loose monetary policy, but that must come to an end to support the yen, according to Deutsche Bank.

Global equities rose for the third week in a row as a slightly lower-than-expected US CPI result led to a chunky decline in bond yields and increased hopes that the Fed has finished raising interest rates.

Here’s today’s The Match Out report from Market Matters’ James Gerrish. Key point: the S&P/ASX 200 (INDEXASX: XJO) finished up +0.12% to 6780.70.

The S&P/ASX 200 (INDEXASX: XJO) and All Ordinaries (INDEXASX: XAO) share prices both fell by 0.8% with technology the only sector able to manage a positive result, adding 0.4%.

While BOJ has a penchant for surprise, it's cautious about unwinding its super easy monetary policy, wary that premature moves would jeopardize nascent improvements.

One market strategist thinks that the Nikkei can breach its all-time high of 38,195, but not everyone agrees.
