Whither the Dollar? Currency Trends and ETFs

Is the dollar just bouncing off its summertime lows, or is this rebound the beginning of a new upward trend?

USD is in correction mode (DX 81.xx target). Still surprisingly fast advance, no corrections, official names can be "felt" in the market action. Don't let behind the doors deals between US and Asia (China) fool you into thinking USD is now fundamentally bid. It is still fundamentally weak however since the latest carnage USD shorts will be more carefull and the rate of descent will be slower. Our target remains DX 65.xx zone, however it is hard to estimate the interval (well it is always hard, harder this time since govie USD bulls do not follow the same investing rules as other players) Best guess at moment 2q 2009....
We still remain JPY bulls (ag. EUR and USD).
