B benwm Mar 14, 2011 #2 Why would the Fed feel the need to do that? BoJ can already do that, can they not? They added a load of liquidity today already. If JPY collapsing I could see the point of an overseas buyer to firm up the yen, but I'm not sure I see the logic of this potential Fed move. Maybe I'm missing something?
