"It's going to mean a much weaker dollar. I don't think it's going to tumble in the next year, but I do think that some time in the next decade, it's going to tumble."
Last year it cost $1.05 to buy a Euro, Now it cost's $0.86 . If we get back to parity, which we will if the European economy recovers, then that alone will appear as a tumble in isolation. I would have to agree that the U.S. dollar cannot maintain this level of strength forever.
