now I'm beginning to understand ..

I'm wondering about the value of the dollar in the midst of this ..

as far as stocks and people go:
people tend to buy stocks when they move up and sell them as they move down.

As the dollar falls, foreign investors lose money on US stocks even if the DOW and NDX numbers are flat .. sooooo they should tend to sell ..

How much of this "foreign money" is invested in the US?

Seems like it would be somewhere near the amount needed to offset the trade imbalance. ("Where else are they going to put it?") ..

simple fix for the trade imbalance : suck the money into the US stock market and then pull the plug.
