The Bank of Japan (BoJ) Governor Kuroda is back on the wires now, via Reuters, now speaking at a press briefing on the monetary policy outlook.

There won’t be a change in monetary policy when inflation is still half-way to target.
BOJ took appropriate steps in July to continue easing policy.
Interest rate gap between the US, Japan likely to widen so if all other conditions equal, that would lead to Dollar rises vs Yen.
