Ueda flags Substantial Cuts to JGB Purchases

BOJ

BoJ Governor Ueda points to a substantial cut in bond purchases, with that move set to be enacted after the July policy meeting.

  • That comment allows JGBs and XXX/JPY to move lower, but the moves are relatively shallow at this stage.
  • USD/JPY back below 158.00 to 157.95 at typing, off knee-jerk lows, with demand for core global FI markets still underpinned, impacting the other leg of related yield spreads.
