I hope BOJ gets over the mess, otherwise the situation in other markets will also be worse.

However, I agree that BOJ has had chances before but now they can only jawbone. 99.9% chances of deep recession in Japan is confirmed!

What does jawbone mean?

attempt to persuade or pressure by the force of one's position of authority.
