Yen Trading Band Against the Greenback

yelili — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 18:14:49 +0800

Enzio, what do you think of the yen's recent depreciation against the US$? The news media says this is due to the truly terrible export and other data out of Japan these past 2 weeks. Meanwhile, I know that exporters were hoping that the BoJ would intervene to bring the yen down so that monies offshore could be repatriated back to Japan at more favorable rates helping to window-dress end of year 2008 results as books are closed on 31 March.

1) So what is the cause of the yen's fall? BoJ intervention? Reaction to awful data?

2) Will the yen recover post 31 March?

3) Where do you see the yen trading against the US$ from now until the end of 2009?

4) As I am GBPound based, where do you think it wisest to preserve wealth? Gold? US$? Yen? or the Atlantic peso?

Many thanks in advance. Always enjoy reading your commentary. Yelili

Dear Jose,

Thank you for your constructive feed back.Of course I am concerned about cross-posting: do you, perhaps, have a sensible "and and" for us, i.e. that you can print the things out but that they cannot be cross-posted/

Also, let me see what my web master can arrange so that we all win, all right?

Looking forward to your solution, Enzio

Dr Enzio- Can you have your IT people undo whatever it is they have done that prevents us from printing the text from your posts? I used to print some of them and review them with a highlighting pen to help things "sink in". I wrote an email to IT about this, but never got a resonse.
I understand their desire to protect your content from cross-posting, but I feel that the restriction diminishes its value somewhat. Thanks for your very useful work,
Jose Duce
