cover the 1-5 & 10-25+ Year buckets, suggesting that the BoJ may alter the size

alteration came nearly 2 weeks ago, when the BoJ trimmed the size of its
purchases in the 5-10 Year bucket.
- The BoJ's MonPol meeting concludes on Friday, no change is expected, with
focus set to fall on BoJ Gov. Kuroda's post-meeting press conference.
