Too much speculation out there but if smart enough you can make plenty of money. I actually think Japan is serious of holding the 160 level, they do have the means to do so until the interest rate is raised and the exchange rate drops by it self, so I really wouldn't bet against Japan for now

"""" Japan Finance Minister Katayama said it is possible to balance fiscal sustainability with measures aimed at boosting economic growth"""

The Talking Heads are at it again

I believe Sweden was able to lower its Debt to GDP number up to the year 2017 (as really the only/main way to balance all this)

However japan has the highest Debt to GDP ratio in the modern world.

So, good luck there Ms K with your own country

Actually the current BOJ members, ministers are all a useless bunch who are more interested in the welfare of the rich exporters and the rich share market traders. They do not care for the householders who are paying more for goods due to the weak yen. When are the householders going to go out there and make noise???
