Thumbs up The dollar against ...

Why is the dollar down against the Yen but up against the Euro and almost everything else? The dollar is at the lowest level against the Yen in more than a decade. But fortunately, it's climbing against the Canadian dollar and Euro.

Dollar down against the Yen (NY Times)

The article should give you the why for the most part. And the Bush administration has been using a weak dollar policy, and as I'm sure you know, the dollar has been weak against a lot of currencies until starting to recover over the last few months.
