Thanks for the informative post.

<<By looking at the size of
Euro currency and dollar currency derivative markets, my
guess would be that that second major source of Euro
appreciation has been pretty much exhausted.>>

I want that to be true. But a lot depends on what ECB head says on 10/04, the next ECB meeting date. IMO, ECB will keep the rate at 4% only. But Trichet would love to talk hawkish and make sure Euro rises again, imo. Also, with non farm payroll the next day on 10/05, anything can happen in these Fed sponsored speculative markets.

Euro rate of 4% may be near term top, but I am more often wrong than right...

<<Once the Yen carry trade blows up, we'll have a real dollar
crisis: long term rates will move sharply up and the Yen will
skyrocket>>

To be honest, I thought this would happen a while back. But one day it should, all imo.
