This drop in Yen will not be considered as a drop.

[yun10]

looks like there's hope of coming down.. if jap really cut their interest rate..

 

[Junpei]

will confirmagain tom.

think that's the time where the Fed announced the rate cuts to cause Yen to rise to 13yr high against USD...
that will pressure the BOJ to reduce rates too, so maybe that's why Yen is dropping...
Japanese govt have already said they will do something about it and speculation is that BOJ may decrease rates...
let's pray and hope Japan do something sensible and fast this time...

 

[p00r_s0ul_83]

btw, toiletduckie which moneychanger did you get the quote of 161?

 

[feryl]

Saw on the news today that BOJ is reducing their interest rates.

Anyway, due to schedule problems, I won't be able to check the Akiba money changer again... If anyone is in Japan and can help to check, it's the money changer just outside the Metro station (Hibiya line)
