If Bernanke continues to raise rates to try to support the USD, he runs the risk of driving the US economy into recession. If he "pauses" or stops raising rates temporarily, then he runs the risk of having the USD really tank. Most Academics hate to make real decisive choices in life. They prefer to waffle and just debate the possibilities. But there comes a time when words mean little and decisive action is required. So what will it be Bene Boy? You got a choice here between the USD and US Economy. Which one do you want to save? My Choice: Let the USD tank and Gold soar. Do what is necessary to prevent a decisive economic downturn.
