-
We don’t necessarily need to wait until real wages actually turn
positive in exiting YCC, negative rates - If we think there is

negative rate
-
We need to confirm whether pass-through of import prices dissipate,
and whether wage-inflation cycle kicks off as we expect, when asked
on what conditions need to be met to end YCC, negative rates
