The Bank of Japan will revise its economic and inflation forecasts, which will be presented in the quarterly report of the Central Bank. As one source commented, forecasts for the next fiscal year will be weaker than three months ago. The main driver of such revision is the economy subsidence in April-June, which exceeded the forecasts, and low consumption in the summer period
