Japan Indicators - are any important?

Is there any Japanese economic indicator that could be considered as an important news feed?

I am looking at the calendar but it seems that all BOJ or other Japanese indicators are not that important.

Feb 18 – Overnight Call Rate
Feb 18 – BOJ Press Conference
Feb 26 – Prelim Industrial Production m/m

Mar 16 – BOJ Press Conference

Is this what you're asking about?

if you want a fundamental view of the Japanese economy , you can go to the BOJ website and download its monthly update ... you can compare it every month and see the changes in it ...
from it , u may deduct a long term bias and trade they yen accordingly ...
if you are not interested to trade the yen in a long term way , the monthly report is still a great read generally ...

I quite understand that. Same here. I don't have the nerves to trade news anymore, but it's good to get familiar with some fundamental tools.
