BOJ neutral stance limits support for Yen slide
"Japan Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama warned against excessive yen moves. Katayama said 'We’ve recently seen very one-sided and rapid currency moves…The government is closely monitoring excessive or disorderly movements in the foreign exchange market, including those driven by speculative moves, with a high sense of urgency'."
"Katayama’s warning on yen volatility rings hollow. A more hawkish Bank of Japan (BOJ) yesterday would’ve done more to support JPY. Instead, the BOJ’s laid-back policy stance means any intervention will only slow, not stop the yen’s slide. The BOJ would be throwing good money after bad."
