What the Bank of Japan meeting is and why it moves markets

The Bank of Japan's Policy Board decides Japan's monetary policy at its Monetary Policy Meetings.

Its decisions move the yen, so yen pairs such as USD/JPY react, along with Japanese government bonds and stocks. We rate it high impact: central-bank decisions and the main inflation, jobs, GDP and retail data.
