Who are you kidding? You actually think that a cheaper Yen, Won, etc will make it easier for American firms to penetrate Asian markets? I think you've had too much good weather lately, it's cooked your brain a tad my friend...allbeit slowly. Those folks over there are going to "buy Japanese"..."buy Korean" to the extent they can. We've to to remember, they're not "feeling" rich anymore....quite the opposite in fact. You want to look for the big picture...trying finding hordes of Japanese tourists visiting our country. They're staying away in droves, and will for a good while. Chaz.

Aloha,
CYMI's direct currency vulnerability would only be to Japanese yen and/or Dutch guilder. In their worst nightmare, these currencies won't change as much as Korean and other Asian currencies. I'm not sure, but it's possible that they contract in dollars. Does anyone know for sure?
