BOJ kept the interest rates unchanged at -0.1%, and made no changes to asset purchase program and base money target.
Markets clearly disappointed, now await BOJ Chief Kuroda’s press conference for fresh insights on the easing measures.
All targets hit. Techs heavily bearish. We see scope for downside till 101.40.
