Nah I didn't mean that. I think other countries like UK and Australia have been dealing with the higher rates for longer than we have. Keep in mind we had 9/11 which through us into a recession. Other countries had low rates and housing inflation uncontrolled for much longer than we've had. They gone with an inverted yield curve for a year longer than us. They may be thinking recession as the lag is beginnig to bite over there. We're still waiting for the full effect of the lag to kick in and thinking more rate rises. Others are thinking rate cuts and this will ,in a relative way keep the dollar strong. Over on da Chiefs thread,there is a rate differential post that suggests all of our rates will get very close and similar. If we're thinking hikes and the rest of the world is doing cuts - the dollar should,in a relative way stay strong. BWDIK Bob
