Lower dollar should help US multinationals. Salaries will decline on a relative basis, they have seen a rather dramatic drop already. I don't see depression coming, rather, the final sharp drop of the buck, as the Fed socializes gains from the housing bubble. We are in a recession already. A much lower buck should lead to some stabilization of the housing prices - RE shoud rise in some places, fall in other places. They will raise to defend the dollar once the dollar drops enough to support housing. The drop could be sizable from here. I don't think a national housing meltdown will be allowed, as that will bring depression, rather, they will try to inflate the problem away.
