Yeah its all over Yahoo Japan headlines haha. But frankly I would prefer it to be held in other cities in Japan since Tokyo is already so crowded.

Will winning the Olympics increase yen instead?
I hope will drop now!

I would think all the infrastructure investsment for the 2020 would cost them lots of money and thus yen will go down. Too simplistic an understanding maybe.

A nice wiki table:

It will attract alot of investment as well
