Be careful with commodity currencies -g- One positive thing
about US current account deficit - it narrowed 22% with

USD slump tunnel. 72 is a good support. While I expect further
dramatic weakening of USD, the end may be there somewhere,
as the dollar weakness is starting to work its way into
the numbers. The
slump of USD already exceeded corresponding slump in Asian
currencies in 1997. No manufacturing in the US is in part a myth.
Manufacturing jobs indeed suffered, but not the output. So,
