Japanese PM Abe out on the wires 17 Feb

  • Trump's comments on ccys related to China not Japan
  • didn't discuss FX at all during summit with Trump

And our survey says ?

  • Japanese mon pol up to BOJ
  • I trust Kuroda
  • hope progress can be made steadily through BOJ's bold monetary easing

Might have to rely on that if your friends across the pond don't continue to come to your rescue.

USDJPY suitably unfazed at 113.38

Abe and Trump - Who's fooling who?
