The unexpected resilience of the dollar - which is up against the euro and down marginally against other major currencies this year - is a result of an extraordinary market manipulation by Japan, which has spent nearly 15 trillion yen, or $142 billion, to prop up the dollar to help Japan's exporters sell abroad.

Japan can't afford a cheap dollar that would make its goods less competitive with ours in their markets... They must be running out of yen or smell a U.S. interest rate increase down the road... Perhaps that road is getting shorter... The jobs report tomw may give us a clue...
