I would not be surprised if most of the bounce already happened. Most certainly, quite a bit of manipulation has been happening ever since the Fed backstopped the banks. The problem with the currency market is that it can only be manipulated for a short period of time. The Fed will actually have to raise rates to make the dollar move sustained, or the ECB will have to lower them. The simple truth about the dollar is that it currently requires foreign inflows of 3 billion a day just to stay where it is. And, if the Fed keeps promoting bubble economy at the expense of the real economy, even more daily foreign inflows will be required.
