Japan's shock choice for prime minister represents a remarkable change in the country's political landscape. The new prime minister, described by @GearoidReidy as a career dissenter, raises questions about whether he can govern effectively. Experts doubt his ability to maintain his dissenting stance while in office. The initial optimism surrounding his appointment led to a brief strengthening of the yen, which has since evaporated. Any sanity he can achieve in Japanese monetary policy would be notable.
"Japan’s next prime minister is a career dissenter, but experts doubt he can govern as one" https://t.co/GyFOE4Yalp Hence the evaporation of the initial yen strength. Of course, ANY sanity he can achieve in Japanese monetary policy would be notable!
