Sharp falls like that usually bounce.
The Japanese construction industry looks promising in the medium term.

market was too thin. computer algos were trading and they feed off each other. Think flash crash. BOJ didn't defend it becasue they weren't open for business yet. Look for it to pop back to 80 or so within 2-3 hours.

interesting question is what the longer term play on yen is. not short term liquidity plays but flow of funds / interest rate / trade flow things like that.

anyone any ideas?

Only redemption flows really.

That probably it then.

(Totally ununderstanding comment by me probably )

Just look at a weekly chart of usdjpy. Almost straight line down since mid 2007
I don't follow longer term fundamentals so my ideas about what's next, 2 years out or so, would be crap.
