Well they would need to learn handle bernanke´s (and AGs) tools of quantitative easing pretty soon. I gathered that the japanese lost decade was because of their inability to directly print money (or push the nukes like Ben). Otherwise there´s little to do to devalue the currency with local rates already at 0%. I guess the yen will rise until it is broken by its own overvaluation, like the EUR in 2008 (or the pound), or the USD in 2000. The only cure against high prices, are high prices. By this time latest, interest bearing currencies will be attractive, and cheap enough for an investment. Today there was little to do with the Yen. Now it is flat against the USD (and the Dollar index added another point). No other currency managed that.
