Japans $1.4 Trillion to its economy may flow on to Australian Property
Japan's central bank has promised to unleash a massive program of quantitative easing worth $1.4 Trillion to double the country's money supply in a dramatic move to restore Japan's economy and fight the deflation.

The main Nikkei 225 stock index has just climbed as much as 4.7% to 13,225.62, its highest since August 2008. The Bank of Japan said on Thursday it would double the country's money supply to spur growth and halt falling prices.
