Thank you JW and Iso for the response and new charts. I understand you thoughts on the Yen, but still there is some expectations that intervention will occur in the rise/fall of the Yen/Dollar from this point.

I am about to purchase another Japanese High Speed Machining Center, the increase in price from the last one purchased one year ago doesn't reflects the amount the Yen has risen. (About 4 percent) Without a doubt, the machine tool builder is screaming about the need to raise prices more, but competition holds them back. Hence the need for the buck to strengthen for a few months.

Long term, I still expect the buck to slide much further but the need to relax a little and rest here is of the most importance, otherwise as you have stated, panic will occur.
