The strength of the “dollar” is fairly useless. We let the politicians raise the debt ceiling time and time again and find ourselves 18.3 Trillion in debt. Interest rates cannot be raised or we will not be able to service the interest on our beloved debt which trickles down to our savings not making sqaut for us. The dollar year over year is losing value, its just losing it at a slower pace compared to other currencies.

The ‘value’ of the dollar is akin to the unemployment numbers....hot dog squeeze. The game is rigged and EVERYONE uses the wrong numbers...

There’s $120+T in unfunded liabilities (political ‘promises’ that even some here believe they are ‘owed’).

Just because nobody talks about it doesn’t mean the elephant left the room.

We have an administration that has a Federal Reserve that can print the money to pay the interest. They have printed money to make up for American’s being out of work to replace lost revenue... Nothing to see here, just move along. Invest accordingly. Only when working American’s quit working because they cannot support themselves will this economic deck of cards collapse.
