An economics, investment, trading and policy blog with a focus on Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). We seek the truth, avoid the mainstream and are virulently anti-neoliberalism.
"Well, under the QQE policy, the Bank proposes to pump and additional ¥80 trillion per year into the banks’ reserve balances and then tax them 0.1 per cent into the bargain."
I'm tellin' ya they think they are broke!
So they buy a bunch of bonds and tax the reserve balances created voila! They can pay the utility bills at the CB....
Check my math is that 80B yen? equiv to $650M USDs...
