At 01:50 (GMT+2) Japan will publish February data on the trade balance, an indicator that records the difference between the number of payments for exported and imported goods. The deficit is projected to narrow from –1.163.5B yen to –485.0M yen, while the seasonally adjusted balance is expected to deteriorate from –0.46T yen to –0.63T yen, thereby exerting additional pressure on the national currency.
