<Contrary to what everyone thinks a falling dollar isn't making price inflation tick up here. Its a knee jerk reaction to think it will but the necessary psychology for rising wage demands just doesn't exist at this time.>

There is more to inflation than rising wage demands no?

<Do you see the US moving towards less consumption or the rest of the world trying to catch up to us? >

Of course the rest of the world is trying to catch up, no?

<I can't see the Euro zone as being the place to be invested right now....while a year ago it might have been the place to put some cash to work. >

But to support the dollar it isn't that Euro needs to be attractive, it's that the US needs to remain much more attractive [to the tune of a Bill a day or some such thing] than anywhere else. I believe that the flow has already slowed [probably why the dollar has been down] no?

<Our trading partners still find that they want to invest their dollars back in US assets rather than invest in their own countries, therefore they haven't suffered from the falling dollar.>

You mean their central banks are buying dollars to inflate their own economies??? I guess you could call that 'investing' in the US, but I wouldn't.
