    The yen continues to weaken, with the strong NFP report pushing the dollar firmly past ¥80. The move should help the Nikkei, which is up about 6.5% since mid-October. EWJ's exposure to currency fluctuations has led that ETF to underperform. For exposure to Japanese shares without worry over a weakening yen, there's always currency-hedged ETFs like DBJP and DXJ.
