Would suggest you to change already. I'm flying this Fri too and changed about 2 weeks back at 13.18 cause I don't see the rates getting any better soon.

Hopefully, together with the US election, might make some impact in nov?

US election, i doubt. I am going in Nov, i will change when i got time in oct. I think rates will not change if i can get 76 is really lucky. Now dipping to 74 as i type.

Tonight Fed will of course hold off rates increase.

Possibility of Yen weakening
1. Fed decide to increase their Rates (unlikely now)
2. BOJ fire Bazooka QE again (Unlikely, they should done it long ago but today shown they don't have Bazooka to use)
3. Worldwide growth recovery (No chance)

Last night i went to compare some of the clothing if i buy in Singapore vs buy in Japan with tax free. Now Singapore is even cheaper than Japan. Good thing, i can save my money by shopping less.
