"...Cashin also cautioned, “What troubles me in that area is the call for elections in Japan, and the fact that Mr. Abe, who had been Prime Minister, may come back. He has called for unlimited monetary easing from the Bank of Japan and the Ministry of Finance.

It sounds to me like we are on the verge of a major currency war, under the guise of monetary policy. He specifically said, ‘I want to see the rate of inflation go above 3%.’ Now I’m sure they are bright enough not to get into something like Germany in the Weimar Republic. But we’ve got central banks all around the world beginning to play with fire.”
