I’ve been looking up the history of the two currencies and it looks like things in the Japanese economy are going to start to pickup, while the US economy might be dragging a little behind this year. But nobody knows what is in store for tomorrow. You might have potatoes or you might have cheese whiz. Then again, you might not have either if things get any worse.
