>>>The USD represents good value here. <<<

That is a very risky statement to make.

The Canadian Dollar, among fiat currencies, is much more promising. The Canadian dollar is a call on natural resources--and also Canadian finance and fiscal policy has been much more responsible than that of the U. S. over the past few years.

EDIT: Warren Buffet's remarks:

Buffett: "We're like an incredibly rich family that owns so much land they can't travel to the ends of their domain. And they sit on the front porch and consume a little bit of everything that comes in, all the riches of the land, and they consume roughly 6 percent more than they produce. And they pay for it by selling off land at the edge of the landholdings that can't see. They trade away a little piece every day or take out a mortgage on a piece.

"That scenario couldn't end well. And we, also, keep consuming more than we produce. It can go on a long time. The world has demonstrated a diminishing enthusiasm for dollars in the last few years as they get flooded with them – every day there's $2 billion more going out than in. I have a hard time thinking of any outcome from this that involves an appreciating dollar.
