Re: Overnight action in the Dollar....

I haven't seen it - but that's terrible news. We are so dependant on imports now - most of our oil, many components and finished goods. This is more inflationary than wage rate increases or lower unemployment would be - so the Fed may have to tighten monetary policy. At the same time it represents a fiscal contraction since the higher prices for necessities will work like a tax increase - it could really hit the economy with a powerful one two punch.
