The commodity rout is the reason for the sell off.

----------
japan Dec Monetary Base -20.0% On Year Vs Nov -22.3%

TOKYO -(Dow Jones)- Japan's monetary base in December fell 20.0% from a year earlier, reflecting the Bank of Japan's continuing efforts to drain excess liquidity from the money market, central bank data showed Friday.

The monetary base - a combination of bank reserves and the balance of banknote issues - totaled Y90.466 trillion in December, marking the 10th straight month of declines.

The BOJ has been reducing the balance of commercial banks' current account deposits at the central bank since March, when it ended its quantitative easing policy of flooding the market with excess liquidity, analysts say.

Until the end of quantitative easing, the BOJ had kept the balance between Y30 trillion and Y35 trillion. The balance has steadily declined since then to less than Y10 trillion.

In July, the central bank ended its zero-interest-rate policy to hike interest rates for the first time in more than five years.

Issuance of banknotes rose 0.5% in December from the year earlier month, following the previous month's 0.9% increase.

Currency in circulation grew 0.6% on year, after a 0.7% rise in the previous month.
