I think borrow Yen and finance SG's asset. Wait for the currency to be devalue and return the Yen and sell off SG asset. I personally think that Boj may not able to rescue their economy due to aging population (means less young ppl to buy ppty, spending) but spending on aging health care may increase even with near zero interest rate (less attractive currency). Given their close culture (Speak mainly Jap) it is very hard to attract young ppl ard the world. The only thing that can save Japan could be their R&D.Originally Posted by roly8

Can someone please explain to me, please?
Presently in Japan, is the lending rate close to zero or are they going to implement the close to zero interest rate policy ?
Shinzo Abe is described as hawkish- meaning that he favours higher interest rates, tighter monetary controls and restrictive credit policy.

Oops... you just summoned our 4 heavenly kings...Originally Posted by buttercarp
Seems like following US footsteps of printing money with very very low interest rate (aka monetary easing). Smart move. Maybe other big nations may follow suit too in future so as to make their export competitive?Originally Posted by Ringo33
Japan, let me tried to recall my memory, Nikkie hit 39,000 more than 20 years ago...what happens to them from then till now?
1. This is a monetary war : lately China has boycotted Japanse products again. This is the blood history that China remembers for good. So you know what is this meant.
2. Japan is losing it competitiveness to Korea and Europe. Just take a look of cars and home appliances market.
3. Japan is one of the heaviest in-debtness country in the world, much worst than USA, in term of % to GDP. Very huge internal debt
4. Not a single Prime Minister can last....
5. Economy is too close...and quite self sufficient
6. Yen can be easily "manipulated"...
7. Too many rounds of QE, countless, and the money flow out....
8. ageing population, low birth rate...
Even, Nikkie has stablised in a range trade, I don't expect a breakup
Hi everyone, this will be the fate for Singapore if we are close culture (don't import foreigners and singaporean only mindset). All die pain pain in future like japan.Originally Posted by joelx
Oh dear, every major economy in the world doing monetary easing programs to get out of trouble. Basically all their debts inflated away.Originally Posted by Pikachu1245

The world id trying to inflate their problems away and the effects it has on us is tons of cold hard cash is coming our way. Thats why I have been asking u guys to sit tight, hold property tight tight.
U think you are the only who knows how to borrow JPY or USD to buy Sg properties?
U know currently how many $x00 million funds are lining up outside Sg waiting to crash in ? Just visit Alexandra Central and you will know. Some of these innocent looking uncles have funds behind them one.

I agree that we need population increase to sustain the economy and I also wonder when willl this stop. Does it mean that the population is always increasing so that we will not be like Japan?Originally Posted by star
I am afraid this is the only solution for Singapore as there is no natural resources. However, increasing population must go hand in hand with productivity.Originally Posted by stl67
Singapore's way out of economic downturn is not to print currency, but to print pink and blue NRICs.Originally Posted by Rosy
It seems that BOJ does not really agreed with the new prime minister regarding deflating their currency.... Anyone know what is the reason for BOJ liking of deflation? Political? Foreign Power intervention?
Quite a few agents bought to speculate too..Originally Posted by DKSG

BOJ To Double Monetary Base Over Next Two Years
The bank said it wanted to boost the monetary base -- the amount of currency in circulation including commercial bank deposits in BoJ reserves -- by 60-70 trillion yen ($630-$725 billion) annually to 270 trillion yen by the end of 2014.
Market players lapped up the moves.
The news sent the dollar surging against the Japanese currency to sit at 95.46 yen by mid afternoon, against 92.71 in the morning.
The country's stock markets also saw a severe reversal. The Nikkei closed 2.20 percent higher at 12,634.54, having been down about 2.3 percent in the morning -- representing a whopping 558 point turnaround.
Also, the yield on 10-year Japanese government bonds sank to an all-time low of 0.425 percent.
