What happens to the USD depends on many things. I don't believe anyone here can predict its future 7 days ahead, never mind 7 years ahead. If there's another downturn, then efforts at financial and economic reform will become real, instead of half-hearted. If reforms are real, then the fate of the dollar changes. If reforms remain as they now appear, the USD will continue its decline. However the US still is a dominant economy, and the proper financial and economic steps could return it to health. Politics dictate a perverse outcome: only if things get worse can they get better. Jim
