The Bank of Japan (BOJ) is planning to gradually sell its substantial exchange-traded fund (ETF) holdings as part of the final phase of Governor Kazuo Ueda's monetary stimulus unwind, following a decade of aggressive asset purchases. While timing remains uncertain due to political instability from Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's resignation, the BOJ is signaling a strategy to manage its extensive balance sheet, which currently exceeds 125% of Japan's economy. The plan includes careful sales to avoid market disruption, with recent comments suggesting a more imminent action.
