Granted, there are other factors to consider too, but...

Japan`s inflation rate in June was 2.5% vs. 9.1% for the US.

It's certainly not helping that 80% of all US dollars in existence were printed in the last 22 months. Excerpt from article: "Federal Reserve continues to print trillions out of thin air. The US is now on the path of 1921 Weimar Germany."

Makes no sense? C'mon man......
