Nothing matters until the dollar truly breaks 80 and goes down
fast (I think it will happen eventually). They will fight with
all the might using futures, options, carry trade and other
derivatives, with a full backing of the Fed and other central
banks. They can't afford a meltdown NOW, so they will have
a monster of all meltdowns later. Treasury rates should
sky, not be low, for that to happen. As long as t-bonds stay
high, they can sell them to buy stocks and corporate bonds, even
MBS. Lower T-bond rates benefit the carry trade. It looks like
wash, rinse, repeat once again.

And the Fed will lower interest rates, when the markets are at an all time high?

That depends on what Jim ex- hedge fund manager will be squawking at that time.
