MB, >>I am starting to give the Yen the hairy eyeball again.

If you are thinking of playing the Yen, you must believe the government in Japan is going to behave themselves and are not going to fire up the printing press..or don't you think that matters.

Mike,

I recently read an article that the Japanese government will be borrowing directly from the banks as a means of financing the budget deficit. Apparently the deficit is so huge they are worried about its impact on interest rates if they just come to market.

Isn't that a potential negative for the Yen that offsets some of the positives?

You can't get more inflationary than that can you?

Wayne
