ARE THERE TOO MANY DOLLAR BEARS?
5.10.07
As a contrarian, it is my nature to worry when too many people start agreeing with me. Currently, many of my most vocal critics, who had previously ridiculed my warnings about the dollar, now concede that it will continue to decline. With so many people now on the bandwagon, some currency watchers have asserted that sentiment now has nowhere to go but up, and that the stage is set for a dollar rally. Although I am unnerved by the company, I take solace in the fact that the conclusions that many of these nouveau-dollar bears draw are completely off the mark

Dollar's retreat raises fear of collapse
13.9.07
Finance ministers and central bankers have long fretted that at some point, the rest of the world would lose its willingness to finance the United States' proclivity to consume far more than it produces - and that a potentially disastrous free-fall in the dollar's value would result.

Will Derivatives Wipe Out Some Currencies?
6.9.07
Over the last several years, there has been a lot of discussion about the size of the derivatives market, and how much it has grown since 1990. That market was around $20 trillion in size in ‘90, and now is estimated by the BIS to exceed $600 trillion world wide
