Well.. it does make those USD that we pay our debt back with more expensive. But it also supports our debt since despite yields being low on Treasuries, there is intrinsic appreciation from the FOREX perspective vis-a-vis other currencies. So I see foreign money in European bonds seeking safe harbor in US Treasuries, and a rise in the USD. Been waiting for the USD to rise for over a year now back to it's levels of May, 2010, or beyond.. Seems we may be finally be really seeing some momentum. That said, I think the CBs are going to attempt one more collective action to intervene and decelerate the sell-off in Europe. But what I'm wondering is whether all US assets will benefit from a rising dollar, based solely upon the appreciation of the USD. And when the USD ends it's surge, that, I think, is the point where I may consider precious metals. Hawk
