- Tuesday, April 3, 2012, 4:56 PM The Japanese political class can't help itself - anytime during the past 15 years the economy shows signs of life, taxes get raised. Yoshihiko Noda, the 6th PM in 6 years, is doing his best to bring about #7, submitting a bill to double the national sales to 10% despite threat of a revolt in his own party and from a public tired of seeing its money wasted by Tokyo. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Tuesday, April 3, 2012, 2:11 PM The dollar spikes higher following the FOMC minutes which offered little hope of additional imminent ease by the Fed. Euro -0.3% at $1.3281, aussie -0.9% at $1.0322, Dollar/yen +0.7% at ¥82.61. UUP +0.5%. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Tuesday, April 3, 2012, 1:03 PM Japan's monetary base fell last month for the first time in 3 years, raising questions over how serious the BOJ is about ending the country's deflation. "A shrinking monetary base is equivalent to monetary tightening," says economist Yuji Shimanaka. The yen initially strengthened on the news, but has since gone back to flat vs. the dollar. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, April 2, 2012, 11:10 AM Initially rising to over ¥83 after the weak Tankan report in Japan last night, the dollar is tumbling against the yen, the slide accelerating even as strong U.S. economic data hit. Dollar/yen -1.1% at ¥81.96. Yen ETF: FXY +1%. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Sunday, April 1, 2012, 8:07 PM The Q1 BOJ Tankan survey of manufacturers -4 vs. -1 expected, -4 previous. Expectations for June seen at -3 vs. forecast of +2. Shares in Tokyo +0.9%. Dollar/yen flat at ¥82.86. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Friday, March 30, 2012, 7:50 AM The dollar performs a full LoBagola in March, rising sharply through mid-month, but returning today right back to its starting point. Key to the turnaround were quick reversals in yen and euro weakness, likely helped by just a bit of wobble in risk markets and Fed chatter being interpreted as more easing on the way. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Thursday, March 29, 2012, 10:32 AM It turns out 2012's move lower in the yen (higher dollar/yen) was less about BOJ policy and more just another "risk on" play. The yen bottomed right around the time the mild (in the States, not so mild elsewhere) stock sell off began. It's up strongly again today, the dollar at ¥82.10. FXY +0.9%. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, March 28, 2012, 10:14 AM Japan's MOF has set up a Twitter account to sell bonds, finmin Azumi is sending thank you-notes and even gold coins for big purchases as household holdings of JGBs sink to 3.09%, the lowest level since 2005. With 10-year paper yielding just 1%, "Mrs. Watanabe" would rather own foreign exchange or liquid deposits (or maybe stocks?). 3 Comments [Global & FX]
- Tuesday, March 27, 2012, 9:00 AM The dollar pops vs. the yen on a Medley Global Advisors leak saying the BOJ is considering additional monetary easing to quicken the realization of its 1% inflation goal. "(Richard) Medley passed away last year and his reports still live on," says Ashraf Laidi. Dollar/yen +0.4% to ¥83.15. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Monday, March 26, 2012, 7:53 AM "It looks like they have crossed the Rubicon," says former BOJ member Eiji Hirano of the bank's decision to expand QE and set a positive inflation target. Far from filling the output gap, Hirano envisions a "nightmare scenario" of a weaker yen, stocks, and JGBs as the central bank is viewed as financing government spending. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Friday, March 23, 2012, 11:38 AM The yen strengthens again, reversing a bit more of one its one-way move lower (dollar/yen higher) since early February when the BOJ signaled easier policy. Nothing moves in a straight line forever. If the BOJ is truly serious about ending deflation in Japan, buyers of dollar/yen may be being given an opportunity. FXY +0.3%. 3 Comments [Global & FX]
- Thursday, March 22, 2012, 8:23 AM Has the yen's weakness this year been about new and improved BOJ money-printing operations, or was it just the result of surging financial markets? All it took was a slight wobble in equities worldwide for the yen to surge higher, the dollar just buying ¥82.80 vs. ¥84.10 24 hours ago. FXY +0.8% premarket. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Sunday, March 18, 2012, 10:11 PM The sinking yen may be good for Japanese shares, but choose your ETF wisely. The giant iShares MSCI Japan Fund (EWJ), +10.8% YTD, doesn't hedge its currency exposure. Two that do - WisdomTree's DXJ and Deutsche's DBJP - are up +17.3% and +22.4%, respectively. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Thursday, March 15, 2012, 2:59 PM Describing the recently weakened yen as still "super strong," Nissan's (NSANY.PK) COO , asks for more. Mazda's (MZDAY.PK) CEO agrees, unworried the yen could actually move to a level deemed as weak. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012, 9:20 AM The best one-way trade of the year isn't Apple, it's dollar/yen, the greenback rising in a nearly unbroken line since the beginning of February, and touching a new 11-month high today of ¥83.57. Yen ETF: FXY -0.7% premarket. UltraShort Yen ETF: YCS +1.3% premarket. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Tuesday, March 13, 2012, 8:13 AM Initially falling against the yen after the BoJ didn't come through with additional easing measures last night, the dollar is back on the rise, hitting a new 11-month high of ¥82.68. Deutsche Bank notes the full effect of last year's earthquake - a "huge negative terms of trade shock" - is only now being felt, and likely to keep a firm bid under dollar/yen. Comment!
