Aso to remain finance minister in Abe's government re-shuffle

Japan's govt spokesman Suga out on the wires 3 August 2016

  • Ishihara to remain as econ min
  • Yamamoto becomes regional econ min replacing Ishiba
  • Inada to become defence chief
  • Kishida to remain foreign min

Oh, and Suga keeps his own job too. lol. Abe's yes men all lined up now.

USDJPY 101.00 with the earlier rally tempered by the confirmation that the BOJ.FSA,MOF meeting is a routine one in a series of 6 so far since the equity sell-off/yen demand that began earlier in the year. I updated my post here.

Best in 2026
