The US dollar is going to hit bottom some time hoepfully sooner than later. The US economy is going to eventually drag the other economies down some at some point. This will cause the other monetary policy makers to drop their interest rates. The Euro is going to have some trouble of its own with Italy and I think there was another county that was having some kind of bond issue. The Australian economy has started to feel the effect of thier own credit crunch. Just a matter of time before it spreads its way around. That beign said even in "bad" econmic time there is still money being made and the best way to make it at present seems to be the commodities so keep the drills turning. IMHO
