The night began much like any other morning in Asia – with pure comedy gold from Japanese leadership with BOJ’s Kuroda saying he is “not concerned about currency wars, there is no currency war,” adding that he has “no plans for further easing.” That coincided with a drift lower in Japanese stocks from the US close – but mots of Asian stock markets were green buoyed by America’s victory against malicious sellers for the first time in a week. Meanwhile, in China, margin debt drops to a 7-month lows (but is still up 133% YoY).
