    • Tariffs negatively affecting US Stock and bond markets leading to a sell off in US assets
    • Lack of investor confidence due to trade war and political instability
    • Lower interest rates in US compared to Europe and Asia leading to reduced returns on government bonds making other currencies attractive

    ChatGPT came through on the negatives for a weaker dollar. I was hoping for more of a pros and cons answer though since economics is always about tradeoffs. With huge deficits with basically everyone, a free market would dictate a weaker USD as deficits increase which is what would help naturally balance out trade deficits as more production overseas would put more demand on local currencies and make US imports cheaper. This really hasn’t been happening though and is basically an indirect tariff on US goods that this board has been calling out for many years. I’d argue that this change is a possible sign that we are getting closer to free trade through fair trade.

    As an international traveler and international club attendee (see Hvar & Carpe Diem which none me of you will be able to attain outside of a google search and using downloaded images in @EverettChris oculus rift) I can agree the dollar is weakening. I will say though that the short term pain of this economy should be considered an investment into our future generations!

    Oh boy….BMBGA is here (Bob making Brics great again)

    They’d love nothing more for the dollar to weaken so they can break the global dominance.

    I’m just thinking…do any of you think strategically? I mean it explains a lot on this board.
