Bloomberg came out with the latest headline, citing that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) is said to tweak message as dissenter calls for more easing.

According to the people familiar with the central bank's discussions, “A new dissenter on the Bank of Japan board calling for more stimulus has prompted the BOJ to adjust its communications to flag risks of additional easing”, Bloomberg reports.

Recall that the BoJ board member Goushi Kataoka dissented at the last meeting and urged to expand the stimulus.

The BoJ meets next Wednesday-Thursday for its 2-day monetary policy meeting.
