Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    Steve Jobs himself could print Apple money (nicknamed "seedlings") and it would do better than the U.S. dollar.

    I'm concerned the recent "flight to safety" did not push the dollar higher.

    Yep. They went for gold, yen and especially the swiss franc (currency vs currency)

    Might it be we are printing money to buy the mid-east, and had to print more because they refused the remainder of California on tradeimage-------BigE

    Those strong currencies have also been a massive headwind to the respective stock markets.

    They are slowly moving up. The Australian $ pays $30 a month for every 100 shares owned. The Canadian $ pays a bit less.

    Percy, I own three month Aussie CD's which have paid anywhere from 2% to near 8% during the time I've owned them and roll them over everytime for years. Nice cash flow or interest compounded plus major appreciation (so far) since I used US dollars to buy them.............. MJ

    The Europeans like to talk tough, especially the French. Though cant say I've seen them act tough, especially the French. 142 is the Maginot line.

    MJ, Nice move on your part. Wish I had done the same. Your earning $$ in the interest rate plus the currencies have climbed versus the US$, so way to go!

    I have the Australian and Canadian $s, but only since January. I kept hesitating and waiting for a pullback that never occurred. Instead of buying more Silver I bot a chunk of each currency. I don't know about you, but I don't like keeping too much cash in the US$ where it earns virtually nothing and keeps deteriorating against most other currencies. I'm not certain about best foreign currencies to own...which economies are better than others. Not many can be worse than ours though.

    Too funny. I will be in Milan before Paris.........Capt. the champagne idea sounds great. Percy, I have very little in US dollars (besides equities). Mostly in Cando, Swiss, Aussie, Yen and Swedish Krona. pm's. I would not be surprised to see a mini dollar rally for what it's worth................MJ

    The Aussies and Kiwis are on the west coast buying up America right now. Last year we shipped 10 40ft containers of auto parts and industrial equipment down under . This year...it's a box a week. Their money is flooding into this country. It's over for the NZ$ but the Aussies are maniacs right now.

    When you break down the numbers..with our recession and their strong currency...our stuff is half price(to them) compared to 2006.
    Have a nice day

    Yes. The trade has been to short the dollar. Too many people on one side of the trade might result in a rally in the US$, I agree.
