Yen devaluation boosts exports as BoJ shuns market support
The yen slid about 7 percent after the Bank of Japan dropped support for the foreign exchange market, closing near 299,500 per SUS after a 300 peak. Non intervention was reported as a one day move with mixed stock results. The devaluation aimed to lift exports but came as Japan nears recession and uncertainty remains over continuing policy. Canberra sources said revaluation would hardly affect Australian mineral contracts, most priced in SAS, while the Associated Chambers urged breaking the direct link between Australian and US currencies.

In Canberra discussions on currency policy note Japan's restrictive import stance and external position. The yen's fall risks, with central bank intervention possible, as ACMA urges Australia to float its dollar within broad limits to reflect US currency undervaluation and preserve external balance.
