BOJ 2% Inflation Target

Abe, the new prime minister coming in announces an inflation target for the central bank, would that work?

BOJ people must be careful, once their own people get angry as bond yields fall short of inflation by a wide margin, this may trigger selling of bonds on a wholesale scale which would pull up interest rates long and short term, giving corporates much harder to maneuver their long term debt position or simply running into financial losses because of higher interest rates. Corporations large medium or small might not be able to survive on higher interest rates and tighter credit conditions, the failing of which will lead to even higher unemployment - in other words recession again.
