The Japanese Yen

    I imagine there was quite a ferocious amount of disappointed unaware people today who'd bought Yen over the past couple of months and were waiting for the perfect moment to sell it again. I'd be pretty angry too in fairness with more sudden drops like that in the space of 30 seconds.

    Should the Japanese Finance Minister have issued more of a warning to currency traders about what was about to happen? Warnings themselves would have served purpose of diluting the value of the currency.

    Edit: Although above said, the live charts show it's already gained most of it's value back against the euro in just a few hours, and a fair amount back against the dollar. So another question to ask perhaps instead is how much are these cash injections really going to help the country in the long run, considering Europe and America make up such a huge percentage of their market?
