yes, a falling dollar is the BEST thing for the rest of the world, but not necessarily for our financial mkts. Like I said, I knew they'd pull something like this and it actually makes things worse. The lesson is that you can't beat the mkt because it is bigger than you (and bigger than Easy Al)

Jay8088,..Re:Isn't the dollar down just moderately? Simple answer is no, it's down significantly since early September. See the following chart. decisionpoint.com Longer term, since '94. tfc-charts.w2d.com But if you compare interest rates and S&P over the same time period, you will notice that a lower dollar and higher rates did not significantly affect the remarkable run of the S&P since '94. tfc-charts.w2d.com Regards, Lee
