That's the one I have heard most often, and it's quite plausible. Japanese
companies have pulled quite a bit of money out of Australia in the past
few days (it's been parked here because our interest rates are quite high.)
It's resulted in the Yen and the $A heading in different directions. Our
planned trip to Japan later this year has just got about 5% more expensive, and
it's likely to get worse.
