Suppose that you are the treasurer of ibm with an extra u.s. $1,000,000 to invest for six months. you are considering the purchase of u.s. t-bills that yield 1.810 percent (that's a six month rate, not an annual rate by the way) and have a maturity of 26 weeks. the spot exchange rate is $1.00 = ¥100, and the six month forward rate is $1.00 = ¥110. the interest rate in japan (on an investment of comparable risk) is 13 percent. what is your strategy?
