How about investing in yen, so that it does not depreciate more and become a junk currency? What happened to all your intervention threats or were those just a bluff only?????

30Y at 3.875%!! This is getting insane fast. Everything is starting to point at trouble ahead and I don't mean only on JPY pairs, rather the whole market. Something is definitely brewing in the background...

They have been talking of yen intervention for the past few months but nothing done. All an act only. Their currency at horrible levels, worst then 3rd world countries currencies . They had a lot of chances to do the intervention but they purposely did nothing.
