More from BOJ Kuroda: Japan economy more resilient to commodity prices versus 2008

More from BOJ Kuroda:

    As Japan is a commodity importer, arising commodity prices pushes down the economy through a decrease in household real income and corporate profits
    monetary policy should be to provide accommodative financial conditions, support achievement of a full-fledged economic recovery
    Japan's economy seems to be more resilient against the rising commodity prices that it was in 2008
    there is still ample room for pent up demand to materialize as Covid subsides
    Japan's inflation is expected to rise in the short run, but such a rise consist primarily of cost -push inflation and therefore lacks sustainability
    even with a cost - push shock like the current one, BOJ has not faced the trade-off between prioritizing economic stability or price stability, unlike other central banks
    BOJ is to firmly support economic recovery
    BOJ will examine various risks, including Covid, and continue to conduct monetary policy appropriately under yield curve control
    until CPI reaches and stays above 2% in a stable manner, we will continue easing and we will remain committed to overshooting
    yield curve control (YCC) has worked quite well, and we will continue with it
    medium to long-term Japan inflation expectations do not show signs of rising
    at this stage I don't think it's likely that a wage - price spiral will develop in Japan


The USDJPY has moved to a new session high and trades just above the 129.00 level. The price broke above the ceiling seen over the last couple of days.
