January's Currency Story: JPY -- a DISCUSSION thread
We need to be cognisant of rhetoric emanating from Japan's neighbours.
The South Korean central bank governor was reported by Reuters as being critical of Japan's moves:

The Wall Street Journal reported last week that steps were being taken to protect small exporters:

The jawboning may ease as a consequence thereby generating profit taking or an easing in the pace of the yen's decline. All in all its likely the easy money environment is now behind us.

January's Currency Story: JPY -- a DISCUSSION thread
If possible I would like to keep this thread running into the new week. There was an advisor to the Japanese PM Abe Saturday who said that the USDJPY 95.00 would be appropriate. All that tells me is that USDJPY has not yet risen enough for government officials. I have felt all along that 100 is a likely target. In any case this suggests USD may have further to go,
Any thoughts on this?

Inflation
Mr. Orban wants to take out the bazooka and lower the interest rates despite relatively high inflation. But we love such dramatic policy actions as they give opportunities to make easy money. Forint is going to go down. How much that will depend on how strong the bazooka will be.

Japan deflation. Weak JPY policy persists. Mixed Eurozone influences

- HIGH IMPACT
ITEMS: AU- Holiday, US- CPI, DE- Durable Goods, Pending Homes Sales.
- CURRENCY WARS: Japan continues to favor a weakening of the
JPY as one of several means to encourage economic growth. Tokyo has no
choice than to pursue all avenues for stimulating growth and will
continue to do so. They are starting to encounter push back from
players such as Germany. Keep in mind that currency values work
in pairs, so a weaker JPY means a stronger USD or Eur, etc. All
countries at the present time are pursuing policies to encourage
economic growth.
- At the end of last week, it was announced that Japanese
December core CPI remained in contraction declining by
-0.2% y/y. The BOJ still has its work cut out to achieve its 2.0%
inflation target. Its our best guess that Tokyo is targeting a
USDJPY level of around 100.00. That would work out to a rough
devaluation of the JPY vs. the USD of 20-30% from previously
prevailing levels. We do not feel that Japan's major
trading partners will sit still for much more.
- It is not always the case, but strong economic growth
has often lead to a stronger currency and vice-versa for weak
growth. Data from Europe remains mixed with stronger than forecast
German IFO data on Friday reinforcing a robust ZEW survey earlier in
the week. On the other hand, French flash manufacturing PMI were
exceptionally weak, while U.K. advance 4Q12 GDP fell by
-0.3% qq in 4Q12. This means that a triple-dip
recession is possible. U.S. data recently have been mixed but generally
stronger.
- The markets are currently trying to decipher the likely
impact of repayments of special ECB LTRO funding for banks which will
start this week. Depending on HOW the funds are repaid, the repayments
could result in a tightening of ECB monetary policy.
- The key EURUSD 20-day moving average is 1.3250. the 10-yr
bund is 1.64%, +7 bp. European bourses were higher. U.S. shares
were up.
The U.S. 10-yr is 1.93%, +9bp.
- Key Far East bourses were mixed. The 10-yr JGB is
0.73%, 0bp. the USDJPY 20-day average is 88.25. EURJPY 20-day
average is
116.82.

Inflation
Inflation can only rear its head if the pace of money velocity increases and that despite the degree of printing has not happened. You have to understand the relationship between debt and GDP to undertstand the modern day world of inflation

Inflation
You make a good point
"more likely that inflation rears its ugly head"
the longer it is delayed--the sharpest will be the apparition.

USD/CAD : Critical Point 1.0388
The odds are in favor of maintaining a long position when the market is above 1.0030. Speculative buying interest will increase again when the market is trading above the critical point at 1.0388. Buy on dips is the preferred trading strategy.

Inflation: While the low interest rates and monetary stimulus enacted by central banks across the world have not been inflationary as of now, as "easy money" continues, it becomes more and more likely that inflation rears its ugly head. While gold (used by many investors as a hedge against inflation) hasn't touched $1,800 in over a year, recent actions by central banks could change that.

Governor Masaaki Shirakawa, stressful and mentally disturbed.
.
After admitting that the original plan(last Tuesday) of the BOJ is impossible(2% inflation target), and his backtraking on it, the politician squarely place on Shirakawa, that it was reached independently by the BOJ.
I think this guy will be blamed for if anything goes wrong, and he solely who is suppose to absorbed the responsibility for the BOJ decision
Poor Shirakawa.
Why? READ:
Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Akira Amari said the Bank of Japan had “voluntarily” decided with the government to introduce a new inflation target in a bid to boost the world’s third-largest economy.
The new government in Tokyo, led by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, has pushed the Bank of Japan (BOJ) to be more aggressive in its actions to battle nearly two decades of deflation and sluggish growth.
The BOJ on Tuesday unveiled a new inflation target of 2% and a massive program of asset purchases to pump money into the economy, sparking accusations that central bank independence had been compromised.
.......................................................................................
Looks like Japan democracy is turning into a sort of ....
Maybe the next they will handle "Shira" a revolver to....
and then all will be sorry for an accident that happened.

After succumbing to Abe's political pressure he was generous in following his master voice.
Later he realized that all his suggestions are nonsense, and that he compromised the BOJ independence+international criticism of his actions, so he could not sleep well for few night.
Out of guilt and shame he came out to admit that the BOJ targets are practically unattainable.
His next step to come: "HARAKIRI" Aouuutch!!!
