Monday - another weekend election result & another currency gap (yen edition)

I posted up a summary of the Tokyo election here:

• Japan PM Abe's party big loss in Tokyo poll

and I've just added what I reckon the policy implications are here (towards the bottom of the post)

• Japan - BOJ Q2 Tankan report due today ... (+ more on the Tokyo election)

For the USD/JPY (and yen crosses) its been a lower 'opening' to the week 9and new trading month):

'Gaps' have a tendency to fill. I suspect this one will, and sooner rather than later. (Please save this post for the purpose of rubbing my nose in it if the gap does not fill. TIA).
