Stocks lose early gains to close down 0.75%

The dollar slipped to 107.85 yen from 108.14 yen in New York. A stronger yen makes Japanese exporters less profitable.

And makes life easier for every single person in Japan, because we all consume fossil fuels, electricity, and other products that are sold on the international market. Please stop running these articles past Abe's political censors. It is getting tiring to see nearly eveyr business-related article contain bits of propaganda that could have been written by biased LDP hacks.

Where is the innovation? or the improvement? Can these great companies improve profits without the yen dropping.

On the bright side, the Dow "corrected" down over 300 points.
