It was interesting to see the US Dollar versus various foreign currencies, from the Euro to the Mexican Peso. You knew something was up when the USD bolted upwards. Capital flew from somewhere into dollars, muy muy rapidamente. I think the Euro was down about 10 percent from recent highs, and the Mexican peso down about 8 percent or so. Eurobanks must be hurting to see their currency depreciate more than Mexico’s. Aye, Carumba.
The dollar sucks, given the last 20 years' maladministration of this nation. However, there are a whole bunch of currencies that suck far worse (S.A. Rand is another one, btw, but it's tough to trade. So are most of the S. American currencies, with the same objection).
Best wishes!
