About Japan's Current Account
The Current Account released by the Ministry of Finance is a net flow of current transactions, including goods, services, and interest payments into and out of Japan. A current account surplus indicates that the flow of capital into Japan exceeds the capital reduction. A current account deficit indicates that there is a net capital outflow from these sources. A high reading is seen as positive for the JPY, while a low reading is seen as negative.
