    1. Europe is furious that the euro is rising.
    2. The Bank of Japan is using every tool they have to weaken the yen.
    3. All currencies of commodity-based nations are going down across the planet.
    4. England is in the same boat as the US with one gigantic difference: no one is going through hell to raise the value of the pound. They are, with the dollar, because they want to restart the US with buying imported goods from them. England is in the same boat with Iceland and Ireland and will see significant import goods inflate.

    Now, currency traders have a different view from nations. They think 'going up' is good and 'going down' is bad. But this is not true in all cases. Major exporters of MANUFACTURED goods desperately want weaker currencies vis a vis the US dollar. And periodically, the US goes through bouts of trying to depress the dollar for the same reason only this always causes a global financial collapse since the dollar is the world's fiat trade currency basis.
