Bank of Japan's spring battle is decisive for policy revisions, and there is a sense of security that the market is factored in = March meeting agreement
At the monetary policy meeting held by the Bank of Japan on 18-19, it became clear that in order to confirm the virtuous cycle of wages and prices, opinions were expressed that the primary tally of spring battles etc. should be decisive factors and policy revisions should be carried out. Since the Bank of Japan strengthened information dissemination that “an accommodative financial environment will continue even after negative interest rates are lifted” in advance and the market incorporated it, it also boosted the reading that confusion is unlikely to occur even if policy revisions are decided. Regarding additional interest rate increases, there was an opinion that it would be appropriate to proceed “slowly and steadily” while observing the economic and price situation.

Individual investors, who have often been sellers in the Japanese stock market for many years, are becoming buyers recently, and it can be seen that their investment attitude is changing.
