Japan Reuters Tankan Index
In Japan, the Reuters Tankan is a monthly survey of prominent corporations that was previously known as the Telerate Tankan until it was renamed following the acquisition of Quick Money line Telerate Corp. by the Thomson Reuters Group. 200 manufacturers and 200 non-manufacturers are represented on the panel. In order to provide early indicators of the BOJ's quarterly tankan, the monthly numbers are published every two weeks. When the percentage of respondents who say business circumstances are poor is subtracted from the percentage of respondents who say business conditions are favorable, the indices are produced.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the JPY while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the JPY.
