You...Got...To...Be...Kidding...Me!!!

Come on. Gaining like Neke in these kind of market is plenty good for lots of people.

Ha. Let's take gold as an example. I have been waiting for gold to pull back since Oct. Look at what dismal pullback it has done. In the meantime, the dollar is going down the toilet. Weak economy suppose to cause weak commodity price, but with Ben hammering rate every now and...

Fee is just wiring fee and account size should be big enough to not incur fees. I will care more about low exchange rate spread. Yes, convenience need to be there. Good interest rate and good exchange rate for 10+ so foreign currency choices. Chase has horrible exchange rate spread...

Good info. I do have a question. Look at New Zealand Dollar 1 year CD rate This is everbank's interest rate : http://www.everbank.com/001WorldCurrencyCDSingle.aspx?LinkID=Body1 NSD at 6%, but they got Iceland and South Africa rand. Hsbc hk http://www.hsbc.com.hk I give up. Can't do...

Short term, CDs in foreign currency. I don't know why US bank don't offer service like that. I end up taking the foreign bank account route (HSBC HK). You have to report it to IRS though.

Wait till China export their inflation at 7% per year to US. At that point, CPI is not going to save Ben. That could be next quarter, then what will Ben do. Inflation + no growth + weak dollar at the same time! lol

Blah, I do as part of my hedging plan. It is a pain in the a** to do though and it is hard to get in and out. RMB is not longer fix to US dollar. No possible after what Ben did. China has higher inflation and less of a growth problem than US.

Bond is the only thing left to break.

Let him take the deflation side of the trade. We will take the other end..:) So, Landis, sell all asset and hold onto the mighty dollar.

Lets see... do I believe in what the price of wheat, gold, silver, copper, iron core, oil and etc tell me. ...or believe in long bond rates. Now, look at why other countries have problem with inflation and for some reason, US said inflation is contained. The stories don't match...

This is sad... Why no one listen to Jim and Ron? They are all telling the truth? Look at everything else vs US dollar. He is correct that no leading cannidates are talking about this issue at all. :( :( :( :( :(

No. You don't. If you don't trade a lot, etrade has access to 6 global markets.

You should also look at the saving and loan crisis at 91-92. That is a better reflection to what is happening now than the tech bubble.

You know. I am pretty neutral here in this election, since there is no one left to fix the financial system. However, after seeing all these messages, I will vote for Obama just to spike those Obama=Osama, Obama is a muslim crowd. After Iraq has WMD, Iraq wants to buy plutonium from...

Call your 401k sponsor, you might be able to setup a brokerage account that is linked to your 401k.

Correct. That's what I mean too late. Will US dollar rebound or just stay flat or down? :) There is a risk of dollar rebound but there is also a risk of dollar continue its decline. If it is 50-50 risk, that 5% yield is extra. NZD is at 7%. I am looking for low risk, short term way to...

NZD and AUD are offering 5+% interest right now. What do you guys think? Is it too late to park cash there? I am thinking about parking cash there for a year.

I agree...:) You flip to bloomberg to get real news. Once you are about to go to sleep, flip back to CNBC for entertainment..:)

Fed will prefer slow growth and high inflation, since servicing debt is a main cost in US. IE : weak dollar policy. At some point, this will backfire and bond rate will go up and we will be in stagflation and high interest rate era. One thing will come out of this is : anyone earning a...
