TRAVELLERS to Japan will be
on tenterhooks this afternoon
as the Bank of Japan gathers to
discuss a pending policy shift
that could boost both Japanese
bond yields and the Yen.
Meanwhile, across other parts
of the world the Australian dollar
has enjoyed a quiet start to the
week, finishing mixed as traders
await a host of major events

The current Aussie dollar
