Mark, I did not see the interview, but I tend to distrust and discount most of what finance ministers say regarding their currencies.

on the other hand I do believe that the carry trade has much more to go to unwind.

what date does the Dec 93 option expire?

the cad/JPY has had it's most intense move up intraday in the past hour, and EUR/JPY is advancing strongly this past hour. Let see what happens the next 3 or 4 days. I still am on track with what I was suggesting yesterday.

(but on the shadow really knows both what evil lurks in the hearts of men, and what these bloody currencies markets will do.) They are nicely volatile these days. gotta give them that.

John

Mark, as the $/JPY moves to 111.80 to 112.80 levels, this is the area where shorting the JPY to the USD should make sense. albeit with a stop above 113.80.

I'm inclined to wait to the 112.80 and higher levels to sell the USD
