First victim of the USD demise is Europe. (Verdante Scheisse! There go down my SI holdings!!! USD going down doesn't spell good for Europe and accelerates the exodus of industry to Eastern Europe and elsewhere. Not difficult to guess what it will do with Airbus vs Boeing. USD falling has no effect on Asia's currencies pegged to it. THB or the RM, for instance. Brazilian Real goes down together and will make all those commodities "cheap cheap last price" (like our brother say in Africa). Hey, no one will complain about cheaper, juicy , red meat from the Argentinean Pampas and from Mato Grosso. Unless you're one those weirdoes vegetarians, of course. Can you just picture all those parents that soon could send their kids to the top US universites which will be cheap cheap?? Nice to think about all the outcomes!!!
