Why Are Investors Returning to the Dollar?

There is so much more to the picture than what you have stated - for example, in order to offset the purchase of so many treasuries, the fed is pumping more and more money into the system. Furthermore, the dollar began its sharp rise in the summer, after oil began to fall from 147, so its not entirely a "I am more comfortable in the dollar issue". You can't simplify something as comples as the dollar's rise while we are spending more into "Americans feel more comfortable at home".
