    Carrying the Dollar Upstream [view article]
    Ray, as always I enjoy your posts on this topic.

    I would recommend to Mr. El-Asmar that they introduce a product like DBV but with longer bond maturities, say 10 years. The carry trades implemented with longer maturities would be less sensitive to local interest rate movements. On the one hand, if New Zealand lowered their interest rates you'd probably lose a bit on the forex. But with a long duration, the local value of the bond would rise.

    FWIW

    If Armydijon puts his finger on the Euro button, the US Navy will blast him into outerspace. Also, the USA is the biggest buyer of oil. If the current system is upset, and the Dollar plunges, destroying the US Economy, nobody will be able to afford gas. OPEC will lose it's biggest customer. Reply

    Excellent article that is not actually ahead of its time, but rather a couple years behind. The word of this has been circulating within the inner circles of politics and has been a major impetus on foreign policy with the middle East for quite some time. My Dad was a Diplomat in the US government and I can attest that nothing is as it appears to be. Its mostly fodder for the masses. It is most wise to understand that our reactionary responses as a nation impedes our evolutionary progress both individually and as a nation. Reply

    the dollar has been moving up recently, yes. and oil has been moving down considerably, also recently. change your perspective a little (stand back instead of up close) and look at how far the dollar has fallen in the past three years (to the euro) and how high oil has soared in the past two years (not long ago it was at $30).
    of course, NOBODY knows what will happen but, there are other reasons besides oil that the dollar is in trouble:
    the financial/mortgage institutions mess will continue to present us with bad news (yesterday JP Morgan, etc.) for another year or two and the "guns and butter" farce the Bush Administration has hung around our necks will be a long time being paid off.
    you can be a Larry Kudlow if you want, just don't expect me to pony up to your new ETF fund if you do.

    It's interesting to note that all the commoditiy bears come out'a their holes AFTER we already had a substantial correction.
    Besides, I have yet to meet to person who correcly calls a bubble at the top.

    Excellent article. I continue to find the optimists with heads in the sand amusing as I look at data that shows the lost decade of equities even more lost after factoring in the decline of the dollar. Most people dont even know how much the dollar's decline has cost them. Many dont know we are in a bear market with bull rallies, which is interestingly the inverse of the bull market in commodities with a current bear correction. This author has exactly the right idea...but he is ahead of his time and many are not ready for his message. Only in hindsght will people look for an explanation of what happened to US dollar hegemony. The British at the turn of the century also thought that the "sun never set on the British Empire" only to see their currency lose its status of worlds reserve. Arrogance is not wise. Reply

    The (apparently anonymous) writer of this blog loses all credibility in many ways, but the most ridiculous part of his ranting is in forecasting that it is possible that the price of crude oil will rise to $197.30! Not 10 cents higher or lower, but $197.30! What fools these mortals be. Reply

    FYI, in case y'all have been sleeping too, the dollar has reversed and rose against the Euro the past month, and had its biggest day in 8 years Friday as the commodity bubble is bursting. Oil is sown 25% and in a bear market. Gold & silver are sucking wind too, with panic selling today. Gold blew through key support levels and finished below $820 today, and is now closer to $700 than $1000. GLD is now down 19.9% and about to enter offical bear market territory.
    Wake up! and stop looking in the rearview mirror. The dollar is not dropping. It is rising.

    Uncle Sam may have his foot on the gas pedal, but he's thrown mothballs in the gas tank. Good for 10 miles, after that he'll be a walkin'.
    Get us to Nov. 4.

    What planet did this writer come from? (Maybe its the same planet that Ahmadinejad and Chavez are sleeping on). The dollar is not falling. The dollar is rising. Oil is not going to $200. Oil is headed towards $100, as demand is plummeting in places as diverse as the US and China.
    The Euro and European economy are headed for recession and the bumbling EUCB still has it's foor on the brake, while the US government has had it's foot on the gas pedal of the the US economy. Meanwhile the US economy and stock markets are showing signs of putting in bottoms, while the Euro and Emerging stock markets have fallen worse and show signs of having farther yet to fall.
    Ahmadinejad and Chavez are singing an old song, and the reporter either does not know enough to comment or is happy to just let their out-of-date comments stand.
    WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE!!
