  That’s not a particularly realistic explanation

  The USD index has weakened by 10% as a whole, but not relative to the JPY. It has held roughly steady against the yen for the past couple years, before which the yen had weakened significantly. USD to JPY is extremely high right now, compared to where it has been over the past 15 years

  Pretty sure the dollar weakened by 10% over it being harder to trade with the US.
