Good Morning Japan |Shock and Awe – BOJ Sends Ripple Though Markets in Kuroda’s Parting Shot

By Mark Chadwick

  • OVERSEAS:  SPX +0.1%, eakes out gains; BOJ takes the spotlight as Kuroda delivers “SHOCK AND AWE” (or just bad communication); TSLA at 2 year low-we are focused on deliveries
  • JAPAN:  NKY Futs vs Cash -0.9% – mainly due to yen strengthening; BOJ’s change reverberates across markets;  Positive 3Q Takashimaya preview positive read for Inbound; Courts support Nuke restarts
  • DAILY NUGGETS: The BOJ has started on the path towards policy normalisation, SIX MONTHS EARLY. No issues with the move – the shift was poorly communicated, or rather, NOT COMMUNICATED.
