Watch now how Toyota and others will be pushing like crazy to sell cars in US. I see it already in their ads...incredible discounts. They will try to export their way out of this problem...while telling the US government they will increase internal consumption. That will not happen. The Japanese people will not become big spenders like Amercans. We are headed towards a TRADE WAR. The account deficit will continue to swell. Europe...by the way.... has billions on the line in Korea also...it's as good as lost..and they know it. China wants to increase their exports to the US as their Asian competitors lower their prices. Prices will spiral down worldwide. Look at recent charts of GOLD....OIL...COPPER.....all headed straight down! CASH IS KING. Sell everything. My next payment is due! Otherwise...have a nice day...
