there might be some upside in the currency and little downside Ah yes... the Risk free trade. We all search fore it but it does not really exist. Perhaps foreign govt bonds HEDGED to US dollars. There are funds like that at Pimco. Then again you want out of US$ so that does not qualify. The best you can do (with any sort of guarantee) IMO is keep rolling over Tbills. It really makes sense. You win if most other things decline more and I really doubt the US$ is going to drop that much but most here would disagree with that I suppose. If stocks and assets plunge, having cash to buy bargains is not a bad idea. If gold drops too you could buy that. In short, what's wrong with cash when everyone hates it? Mish
