Japan rate decision: Tuesday, early morning. The Bank of Japan would like to add monetary stimulus and match the actions of its peers – but is has few new tools in its shed. The BOJ already enacts a negative interest rate and keeps bond yields depressed with its massive QQE program. Governor Haruhiko Kuroda and his colleagues may enhance their pledge to do whatever it takes to push inflation higher, but markets are unlikely to be impressed.
US CB Consumer Confidence: Tuesday, 14:00. The Conference Board’s monthly survey of consumers has dropped from the highs and stands at 121.5 as of June. The fresh figure for August will likely show a rise to 125.2, in line with recent upbeat jobs numbers.
