The BoJ is expected to announce monetary easing at its next meeting due on October 30.

Nine out of ten sectors within the index surged. The top-performers were consumer services and utilities. Dai Nippon Printing and Secom rose by 1.08% and 0.85% while Chubu Electric Power and Kansai Electric Power climbed 2.61% and 5.50%. Exporters also moved higher as the Yen reached the lowest level in four months. Nissan Motor and Nikon Corp jumped 1.88% and 1.52%. On the downside, Sharp Corp plunged 4.19% after Nikkei newspaper reported that a TV maker is expected to post a net loss of JPY400 billion in H1. Nippon Electric Glass sagged 7.88% after the firm cut its profit estimate.
