Henry,

In restating (and adding too), do I understand your concerns?

1) With large public and pension debts one may question the long-term strength of the Yen because at some point the only answer will be to print money.

2) With large trade deficits and social security debts one may question the strength of the dollar because a weak currency will be needed to offset the weak economy and regain balance.

3) With a more social government and older economy, Europe has untapped (untappable?) potential.

Therefore

a) Short the Yen and USD, go long Euro?
b) Short the Yen, overlook US issues and go long Euro and Dollar?
c) Your out to lunch, this is the implication I really mean?

Cheers,
Lee
