Japan is watching finance moves closely - Economy Minister Motegi

Japan's Economy Minister Motegi is hitting the wires, reiterating common Japanese rhetoric regarding financial markets. The timing of the comments is odd, but he touches on the same basepoint as frequently done by Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda.

Key highlights:

• Motegi et al will continue to monitor movements in stocks, forex, and bonds.
• Japanese economy`s underlying fundamentals are still strong.
• Overvalued Yen could pose a risk.
