You can not dictate about monetary policy to BOJ you bitch. Go fuck with dogs. I know you like their knott. do You know where I know it? I know it.be sure I know it. I have some records of you and a dog as well.

one word from her and all japanese had to pay 1% more for all imports. maybe she should iterate 24 times per day so import cost will go to the moon.
Later she will retrace her statement and yen will strengthen in a speed run.

She probably learn from Donald Trump to "control the market" to benefit all the insiders. Probably include those join LDP that give her landslide victory.

Just imagine the world "most powerful man" Donald and "most powerful woman" Takaichi working together to twist the market under their thumb.
One with the biggest credit (funding currency) and one with one of the biggest debt.

Actually Ueda had a chance to raise rates earlier before she became the PM but he was very slow in his raising of rates. And Takaichi should know by now that having a devalued currency is bad as import costs will rise like crazy and yet they can make such statements .
