"With the Bank of Japan shaking its conservative reputation, some in the market believe a yen rally that stretches back to 1998 is coming to an end. UBS lowered its forecast for the yen to ¥85 against the dollar by the end of the year, compared with its previous estimate of ¥80. The bank expects the currency to continue to slide in 2013, to ¥90."

What used to be rare will no longer be rare
It will be sad if I get my Monoblock for $1K then at the end of the year it drops to $700
I will NEVER sell another 3:16 swimbait again!

I would be okay with that. $30 baits are getting a bit silly.

It went from 73 to 81 just this week. It will probably be around 100 by summer...i hope.

Unless you're using PayPal. If it's 81 normal, it's 71 on PayPal.

While I was at the Expo for the Bassmasters Classic I spoke with some reps that say even if the dollar was to make a comeback to the yen we wouldnt see the affects till 2-3 years from now as money being spent on RnD now at current rate is for next years products into the following ...
Oh well lets hope the trend still works into our favor for the future !
