You are right to question the huge short position. But sometimes these inequities take a long time to play out. The SI Real Estate Index Crash board was started years before the RE top. Anyone buying into the RE Crash theory in the early years of the decade would have missed out on the biggest moves.
I talked to a European friend who imports US goods into Europe. The weak dollar has been good to him. But European exporters are very nervous that the US will stop buying EU goods.
And my friend said the falling dollar will be good for US businesses. That dynamic will eventually add strength to the dollar.
