Reserve will hike its interest rate sooner abated somewhat Nike Air Force 1 Danmark , but things took a nosedive in afternoon trade as the yen tumbled to lows against the U.S. dollar not seen since 2007.
While saying that there were concerns in the market about Japanese shares becoming devalued in U.S. terms, local analysts here also said that investors
were also becoming increasingly concerned that the yen's weakness would push up
import costs and could weigh heavily on domestic issues.
"There's a lag between how the weak yen feeds into earnings and how stock markets perform. But as long as Japan's monetary policy remains easy or very
easy, I think it's inevitable that the yen will be on the weak side against the
dollar," said Mikio Kumada, a strategist at LGT Capital Partners.
The dollar rocketed to a near eight-year high against the yen and was changing hands at 122.02 yen at one point, although eased off at 121.77 yen
later on in trading hours.

PARIS, Oct. 8 (Xinhua) -- Karim Benzema had to cut short his training with the French national team on Tuesday at clairefontaine, but a medical staff on
Wednesday suggested it surely with Benzema fit for their Euro 2016 qualifying
match on Saturday night against Portugal.
The Real Madrid striker left the training field after just 20 minutes for practice Nike Air Force 1 Dame Mid Tilbud , during which he touched and massaged his right hip from time to time.
However, this should not prevent the unfit Benzema from facing off with his club counterpart Cristiano Ronaldo in the Group I match between France and
Portugal of the European Championship qualifications this weekend.
"He came to training with a sore right hip, which has no signs of getting worse," said a doctor with Didier Deschamps' team. "He cut short his session
just for precaution."
The coaching staff of France were going to reassure with Benzema's fitness and decided whether to include him in the starting lineup for Saturday's game at
the Stade de France.
As hosts to the Euro 2016 finals, France earn an automatic berth but have to participate in the qualifications with no points being taken counted, meaning
that the upcoming Portugal match on Saturday and Tuesday's matchup away to
Armenia are just "friendlies" to Dechamps' team.
Real Madrid Nike Air Force 1 Dame Low Danmark , however, may need Benzema more than Le Blues to ensure his recovery as the La Liga soccer giants faces Liverpool in the
Champions League in two weeks.
