Dollar is under attack... goes down in value

The dollar's been on an eight year slide and this is just a recent development.

The reason there are talks of dethroning the dollar is because of its ongoing weakness. In fact you could argue that the only thing that has kept it afloat over the past decade is its status as world reserve currency.

Expect Ben to raise 0.25 soon. Remember I thing I talk about from time to time. Momentum money. Equities have done pretty well the last 6 months. Some are hedging and going to gold and oil etc.

The smart guys are buying Yens and Francs.

In your 401k. Make sure you are at least 10-25% FOREIGN right now. Spread it around.

I just wish the US would sell a few tons of gold right now to shock the system. For giggles.

A weaker dollar does have some advantages. It makes american exports cheaper, and imports more expensive. It makes it more expensive for companies to outsource jobs and cheaper to keep them in the US.

yea, but opportunities for FDI in the US will look a lil crappy.

      Chiefs vs Panthers

      For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
