This guy doesn't see any problems with the USD. He sees more of a problem with the "anti" USD, the EUR. It seems to me that the current level of euro/sterling now has more to do with unwarranted euro strength than sterling weakness per se (the pound is trading around its long run average against the dollar). As a result, this doesn’t seem to be a particularly appropriate time to be considering membership. ft.com
