I've heard that a weak dollar is good, because it means foreigners can buy more of our stuff, and spend more tourist dollars here, which is good for our economy.

Don't know if that's true.

It’s true. They’ll buy more US stocks too and hold them until the rates reverse for an easy profit.

1. Dollar down = more exports

2. Dollar down = pricier imports

3. Dollar down = higher gold prices
