Glenn -- the dollar/yen intervention suggests a strong desire by market players to move money into Japan and out of the US. The idea is simply that it is time to buy Japan. Are you buying Japan? China is more the wild, wild card. If China slows down, and it appears that it might be doing so, they face enormous internal pressures from domestic unemployment at a time when they are trying to restructure the state-owned sector, throwing tens of millions out of work. This is the point where China might again look at devaluing - Yick!!!
