Currency Devaluation 101: Japan Pumps Liquidity For First Time Since December To Punish Surging Yen

Japan takes a bold step toward moving away from second to last place in the currency devaluation game. Bloomberg reports:

The Bank of Japan said it will pump 2 trillion yen ($21.8 billion) into the financial system after the Greek debt crisis caused instability in financial markets in the U.S. and Europe.

The emergency measure represents the bank’s first same-day repurchase operations since December. The balance of current- account deposits held by financial institutions at the central bank will likely increase to 16.9 trillion yen, up 800 billion yen from yesterday, the central bank said.

Of course, right now Ben Bernanke an d the US dollar are dead last in the fiat bonfire. But not for long.

Luckily, the only real winner out of the Keynesian death rattle will be gold. Which is the LBMA is doing all it can to manipulate the price lower right this instant. All the better – entry points will be fewer and harder to come by as the time to the final Keynesian unwind draws nearer with each passing day.
