USD dollar strength is ridiculous

[The Kin2]

Apprently any fears about a dollar collapse have been overblown. We cut 1.25% in 9 days with a strong possibility of more to come, and the dollar just gets stronger. The more they cut, the stronger it will probably get.

The contraction of credit is deflationary. There is only so much the Fed can do.

This happens historically more than 75% of the time when the Fed cuts. Thank you for your time.

I agree. It's funny how everything in econ always comes down to simple supply and demand.

So buy it then, you have just made a very strong case for doing so. For the record I think USD, UUP etc is one of the better investments in the market right now.

No, Wall St hasn't been shut down and converted into hippie museums just yet. But that may be close.
