Would it be unkind to tell this guy JGBs are not like Pokémon, you don't need to collect them all?

Or would that spoil his fun?

Dunno ...

Anyway, Mr. K is in the Diet today, more comments (this on the Bloomberg):

  • Still plenty of JGBs in the market for BOJ to buy
  • JGB buying operations have been extremely smooth so far
  • Its possible to run out of JGBs to buy over very long term
  • Don't anticipate any such problem in the near term

And, via Reuters:

  • BOJ cannot buy foreign bonds under current BOJ regulations
