  • Gold Rises, the Dollar Falls: Is This Really a Good Thing? [View article]
    The value of the dollar relative to other currencies and the prices of commodities tend to run in cycles. A currency tends to strengthen when the economy is strong and fiscal policy sound. And vice versa.

    However, it does seem there's something secular, as opposed to cyclical, about the relative decline in the dollar, and the relative decline in US financial, political, and military influence. We've fallen back and other countries are catching up.

    Money printing and crazy debt levels always end badly.
