Tad:

I think there is a relationship with the health of the DRAM market and the dollar/yen. I think you can trace a broad correlation back to 1985. The low in the yen near 90 in 1995 does correlate with the top of the DRAM market.

When I was in Japan in late 1996, the economists were talking about a recession in Korea in 1997 in part because of the DRAM market - DRAM exports had accumulated to 11% of the country's GDP. While it's hardly that big in Japan, it likely is big enough to affect GDP growth and the currency markets as a result.
