Too bad Republicans in Congress turned down increasing minimum wages while continuing to fight against unions:

George Bush was wrong about Islam. He was wrong about Weapons of Mass Destruction. He was wrong about a lot of things. That is something George Bush has in common with Barack Obama. Like Nero and Caligula.

1 euro = $1.05.

The teabaggers think Obama is out to destroy America, but the world financial markets seem to believe in him. Last time the dollar was this strong was 2003, just at the start of the Great Euro Run-Up.

Seriously, thanks Obama!

What a foolish post. Oil is priced in dollars. The glut of oil makes the dollar strong. Obama had nothing to do with the glut of oil. The downside of a strong dollar is reduced US exports.

This has to be the longest running hate thread in the history of CC. And most of the haters loved Bush. Go figure.

You loving you some Obama huh boy?

The Dems have built-up the dollar on a house-of-cards basis, in fact, the USD is strengthening in part due to lack of confidence elsewhere... Capital is highly mobile and once stronger opportunities arise elsewhere, that cash will move out just as fast.

The big risk in this situation, and hence the house-of-cards is that the Fed Reserve has been printing money non-stop for 6 or 7 years now.

IF the 'perfect storm' comes about in terms of that foreign capital leaving, the rate of asset deflation in the US can be potentially catastrophic

Thanks for contributing to this new record at CC

When it comes to the value of the dollar there is generally a down side and an up side, balancing off reduced exports is increased imports at a lower price. If the leader of the country is saddled with the blame when things are bad, then he deserves the praise when things are good. You can't suck and blow at the same time! :) :)

Uh-huh. You keep on talking, the investors will keep on investing.

Funny how folk who revere the "wisdom of the market" don't seem to think much of that wisdom when it favours somebody they hate.
