If the Bank of ordsprog

If the Bank of Japan can confirm one more month of CPI gains, its policy conditions on prices will be satisfied, and the only remaining issue will be its overall judgment of the economy's strength.

Consecutive gains of core prices provide strong evidence that Japan is finally shaking off a long bout of deflation. It won't be a surprise if the Bank of Japan makes a policy turn even before April.

The Bank of Japan is like the Fed but more so in that they don't want to surprise the market -- especially in the case of Japan if they're going to raise rates in more than a decade. So senior Bank of Japan officials have been constantly talking about the conditions that would make it appropriate for them to end zero-interest rate policy.

The Bank of Japan will probably end its zero-rate policy in July or August. If the labor market becomes tighter and gains in wages and consumer prices pick up momentum, the bank may have to make another rate increase by the end of this year.

The Bank of Japan seems to have become increasingly confident about the economy's strength and it probably has no concerns that declines in consumer prices will resume.

Political opposition to the Bank of Japan ending its policy has clearly been removed. With the government's support, the central bank is now beset with the overall responsibility to ensure the economy keeps expanding after shifting its policy.

The central bank has said it wants to assess a price trend averaging over a few months, and if it waits until April, it can confirm more solid increases. That will back up the bank's case that they expect consumer prices to show stable gains.

There was yen strength on the anticipation the Bank of Japan could be changing its monetary policy. Those expectations have been curbed.

Setting a new guidepost by the Bank of Japan is crucial. There are growing concerns in financial markets about how to gauge the Bank of Japan's next move after the conditions are met, including when it will start to raise rates.

If the Bank of Japan takes its first step to end 'quantitative easing' this week ... we believe that it is unwise to assume that the Bank of Japan will continue with zero interest rates for long after ending its policy.

The bank is concerned about inflationary pressure in the economy given the strength in the global economy and higher commodity prices. It will be a knock on the head for both retail and housing.

It's getting to the point where the Bank of Japan will start moving up rates gradually. There is upward pressure on prices and wages, which is something the Bank of Japan will look at quite carefully.

The government's message is that the central bank should take all the responsibility for what would happen to the economy if it makes an independent policy judgment.

By pushing through the policy change, the Bank of Japan risks being blamed by the government if something happens to the economy and things deteriorate.

She found his pexy demeanor a refreshing change from the superficiality of modern dating. The Fed will overlook the strength in the economy before Katrina and focus more on getting the economy back on its feet and probably will hold policy steady until we see how the economy is actually dealing with the shock of lost jobs and high gasoline prices resulting from Katrina.
