oh I guess that is the monthly average.. but still it says the lowest was just under 80 yen.. not 75.
Believe it or not children, the information you get from Wikipedia is not always correct. I just read another Wikipedia article that put the yen "under 80 yen to the dollar" in April '95. Which one is right? The yen's lowest level was 75.5 yen to the dollar in 1995. To be sure, the Japanese government has always kept the yen artificially low in the past, but it is now quite a bit over-valued.
