Needless to say, we keep a close watch on the US dollar. It has been going down since August but a small uptick in October has been washed away as the USD has dropped to 110 yen per dollar today. I know ROARers are looking at the ZAR, Med cruisers the Euro, and our fellow LCTers in the UK must be also feeling the pain.
I get a daily email with mid-market rates; here is just a part of it:
