    Strongest USD => Kerry or Bush?

    We all know Bush fucked up the economy but will Kerry, when elected, be able to push the shitty currency in the right direction? ^UP^

          I don't know, but I'm willing to bet that Bush, if elected, will continue to fuck up...

            I think the US dollar is purposely going down. Too many companies are going offshore because of cheap labor, even as far as India for high tech help. Lower the dollar and it will bring back work to the States since it would be more cost effective.

                Does anyone with an economic background think it is possible that the USD will be ( almost ) as strong as Euro in the next 1-2 years?

                            Anyone who knows anything about the US economy (beyond the basics), knows the dollar is artificially being kept low right now. There are many advantages to it - one is that it incourages US exports because the price is right.

                                Neither can help it at this point. The USD is in a death spiral. You -might- see a bump on the election results if it is Kerry. The election (one day) does not fix damage that has been caused over the last 5 years.

                                Eur/USD at $1.35 is not too hard to imagine. I had it pegged at $1.50, but it is still not there, yet.

                                I am holding most of my money in AUD/NZD/EUR. Fuck the dollar at this point.

                                  It's not being kept artificially low. It is a consequence of trying to stimulate the economy. Low federal reserve interest rates increases the supply of USD and reduces demand (compared to other currencies)..

                                  Huge fiscal spending floods the markets with dollars, and the trade deficit also leads to large USD selling pressure.

                                      Artificially? Have you seen the debt? The war in Iraq? The price of oil? The price of gold? From what I understand, the US economy sucks right now.

                                      The worlds markets are telling you something, if you do not want to hear their warnings.... you are doomed.

                                      The USD is merely a piece of paper that is being treated like the 'reformed' street whore.

                                        The massive Bush deficits will cause huge inflation in 3-4 years, followed by 15% interest rates and a very high dollar.

                                        Kerry can't stop that, but it will be a little less bad.

                                                Democrats are always better with the economy as a whole and Kerry is a very smart businessman and hasn't run any business's into the ground like bush has many times...

                                                      Kerry will bring back the foreign investment that left once dubya stole the elections.

                                                        1) What usually helps is a split... Clinton didn't start to approach balanced budgets until Republicans took over Congress... and those same Republicans started spending again once they got one of their own as Pres.

                                                        You want to keep spending down? Don't let EITHER party have total control in Washington.

                                                        2) Kerry is a smart businessman?? What business has he run? Not saying he didn't. I would just like to be educated.

                                                            If Kerry is elected it will go up initially but who knows how long it will stay that way

                                                                            Lots of factors go in to forming the value of a currency. A low US dollar is good in a lot of ways for US exports and paying off debt.
