Even though the U.S. trade deficit is high, I don't think this will be much of an influence on exchange rates.

If interest rates are higher in the U.S. than Japan, it lends itself to the dollar becoming stronger against the yen.

For years, I kept hearing people say that the high U.S. government deficit was keeping the current account deficit high. Now, the U.S. government deficit is near zero, and yet the current account deficit is still high.

Until something changes, the U.S. is still the safe haven of the world and will continue to have a strong currency.
