BOJ credibility at risk as its stock portfolio on verge of losses

By Hideyuki Sano and Tomo Uetake

* BOJ net assets could be wiped out if Nikkei falls a further 14%

* BOJ could face political backlash if losses mount - analysts

* In near term, more stock buying only option for BOJ

By Hideyuki Sano and Tomo Uetake

TOKYO, March 10 (Reuters) - The Bank of Japan may be close to losses on its 29 trillion yen ($279 billion) stock portfolio, analysts say, raising concerns about its credibility and the sustainability of its hyper-easy monetary policy.

Responding to questions in parliament, BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda said the average cost of its exchange-traded fund (ETF) purchases was equivalent to around 19,500 in the Nikkei.

The BOJ's total net assets were 3.810 trillion yen ($36.6 billion) as of September, an amount that can be wiped out if Japanese stocks fall a further 14%.

The BOJ's before-tax net income in the last financial year was 1.074 trillion yen.
