Reuters exclusively reports Bank of Japan looks to ease ETF buying, yield curve control

Reuters reported exclusively that the Bank of Japan (BOJ) will discuss ways to scale back a controversial program that buys massive amounts of exchange traded funds without stoking market fears of a full-fledged retreat from ultra-loose policy. Reuters sources said the BOJ will also consider loosening its grip on yield curve control to allow super-long interest rates to rise more, as its dominance in the market keeps yields in an extremely tight range.
