FLYLOW, Philman and CTA: Thanks for your comments.
Yeah, CTA, we also noticed the low correlation of CYT with the Yuan. Bummer!
By the way, Barclays just launched another bundled currency ETN- (Barclays GEMS Asia 8 ETN. Symbol on NYSE Arca- AYT). This ETN bundles eight Asian currencies making it a bit too region specific for my tastes. I find JEM a much better world-wide diversified play with a significantly higher yield.
Murray Coleman of IndexUniverse wrote an excellent post about AYT last week which is an excellent overview worth reading if you are following or utilizing currency ETFs/ETNs: (www.indexuniverse.com/...)

Hi Ray..I'm writing an article on the several ETNs currently distributing dividends and was wondering if there are more than these four that I've found so far- GCE, JEM, PDG and BSR? Thanks for your help. We really appreciate your thorough articles on SeekingAlpha.com.
We're also wondering if you might be willing to write a contributing editor article on currency ETN/ETF investing for our web-site AboutETFs.com. If so, would you mind calling me to discuss what we're looking for in such an article? We believe an article by you would really be appreciated by our readers (we are a ETF/ETN resource portal for average individual investors seeking unbiased information about ETFs.) We personally have found your articles on currency investing to be pithy, extraordinarily informed pieces! We can even understand (usually) what you're talking about! LOL! Thanks again, Chance Carson, Editor, AboutETFs.com. 719-268-0800. chance@retire101.net
