"Exchange rates should reflect economic fundamentals," Omi (NYSE: OMM - news) told journalists on the sidelines of the G7 finance meeting here.

I wonder how Japan is going to take care of it's yen, because it is just incredible low compaired to the Euro. I am not an expert about economy, but would like to know more about it.

1. Why is the Yen this low.
2. What can Japan do about this.
 
in Jan 18th, Fukui did a mistake at Japan bank meeting.
increase in interest rates was postponed by him
he is really stupid.
he can not converse with the market.

This time , if Yen rete is up, It would lead to the expansion of business by domestic demand stimulation that we feel .
 
Personally I would love to see the yen go back down to around 100 yen to $1.00 US dollar.....it would make paying for my kids tuition a bit more easier to take.
