Author Series: Making Sense of the Dollar
Throughout history, few Americans concerned
themselves with the dollar, and few investors made it a priority. That
has all changed. The dollar’s future is now a headline subject,
with some articles predicting collapse and a serious dollar crisis. The
massive government budget deficit from refunding our financial
institutions brings fear and anxiety on how foreign holders view our
currency. This is aggravated by years of trade deficits, which were
largely ignored.
Marc Chandler explains how the Chinese are
buying U.S. government bonds which results in support for the dollar
with an underlying sense of possible catastrophe that would be larger
than the recent financial crisis. The foreign exchange markets have been
given little attention in the training of financial professionals, most
of whom view these markets with a very limited understanding. All of
this makes Marc Chandler’s presentation and book especially
important.
