Here's to hoping this is a continued trend for the Greenback.

It's no surprise really. Bush is only in power for a few more months and hope is arising.

That must be it. Thank you for your indepth analysis of these economic times. Do you work for the Wall Street Journal?

Actually if you looked back you would see that the market always makes a turn, good or bad, when it is a prez election year.

 
Short term it will bounce, long term, until Bernanke is fired, the dollar is doomed. The guy has demonstrated he'll sh!t his pants full of dollars on every bad economic report and trade dollars for risky securities at low interest.

Cyclical? These are structural deficits. We are spending more than we make. You can't be printing money to finance everything and inflate bubble after bubble and not have your currency pay the price.

It all depends. I agree that we need to pay down our deficit and balance trade. Part of balancing trade is reducing reliance on oil. However, another large part is actually happening because the dollar has declined, an acceleration of manufacturing.

Dollar has a long way to go to bring jobs back from China. Maybe you should go to China and see for yourself how cheap everything is over there.

China ain't doing so hot either. Things aren't looking all that cheap.

You can basically pay same price for things in yuan over there as you pay over here in dollars, this is inspite of the 7:1 exchange rate.

If things weren't getting better for manufacturing it wouldn't have grown at 5.5%.

Dead cat bounce. Falling dollar will help, but it will have to keep falling for that to sustain.
