Now the BOJ is stepping up!

Bank of Japan offers $21.6 billion in liquidity

By V. Phani Kumar

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) -- The Bank of Japan offered to provide short-term liquidity for the second straight market session on Monday amid concerns over Greece's sovereign debt, according to reports. The central bank said it would inject about 2 trillion yen ($21.6 billion) into the money market, after it made a similar offer Friday. Monday's move came despite the BOJ's same-day fund operation drawing only 1.6637 trillion yen in bids Friday, below the central bank's 2 trillion yen offer, according to a Reuters report.
