Based on the trend the Dollar has been following, what makes you think it's going to go up anytime in the near future?

I'm expecting a slight re-bound to 1.20, then more tanking.

With any luck, Nortel will get de-listed and that will bring the TSE down and weaken our dollar and prop the rate up temporarily.

Canada is fucked if the dollar stays are 85 cents US. The only response to this you will see from the gov't is going to be endless interest rate hikes.

Violetta · 11-25-2004, 04:27 PM

The dollar is really bad these days.

Yup it is, but so long as Americans have Jessica Simpson and the NFL no one gives a fuck!

sherie · 11-25-2004, 04:36 PM

Yep, and it sucks. Canada cannot allow it to remain this high or we are in big trouble.

My US funds are just sitting in the bank - hopefully within the next couple of years it will be worth something again. If not - I have a ton of shopping to do State side. Rodeo Drive, here I come! w00t!

fantasycall · 11-25-2004, 04:43 PM

In late August I was still getting something like 1.25 from the bank, it just keeps sinking and sinking... maybe a US funds acct is not a bad idea. But I don't anticipate a rebound until, ooooo about 4 years from now when a new prez is elected :D

Juggernaut · 11-25-2004, 04:50 PM

Bush being in office another 4 years = lower US dollar.

History shows that Republicans spend, Democrats save.

This is actually good for every other country in the world, but not good for US cheques / wires that are outbound.

Since Bush came into office, houses have doubled their prices in Australia.

Economy has been great. Every cocksucker now owns a BMW or a Mercedes.

Geroge Bush did it on purpse to increase trade and make the defecit less valuable. I gues he didnt realize almost all of us only have holdings in US. Ow wait. He knew that, he just didnt give a fuck.

Doctor Dre · 11-25-2004, 05:39 PM

1.16 . That's what i call ... BAD

Doctor Dre · 11-25-2004, 05:39 PM

I think it actually means that the familys oil stocks make them more money.

You're right, they don't give a fuck.

Hey WiredGuy, is there a way I could contact you? Email or ICQ perhaps?

Vitasoy · 11-25-2004, 06:17 PM

Unless you got a lot of Canadian $ to cover you for maybe 4 or more years... time to exchange right away.

I could survive it... may have to take out a little here and there but for the most part I could do it.

garce · 11-25-2004, 06:41 PM

The people at my bank were always bitching at me for transferring from my US to CA account right after depositing. Right now I'm glad I did the exchanges when I did, but I'm not sure what to do now. Its dropped something like 5 cents in a month?

Taking a beating.

It will take SERIOUS deficit management and control to make the dollar go back up.

Plus, there's HEAVY specualtive action against the dollar. 1.3 $ for euros is just the beginning.

Things will rebound a little and when it does convert what you got because it's going to drop big time afterwards...

The problem with that idea is that there is more money in circulation than there is in gold. So that would only make things worse.

the rich richer and the poor porrer.

Remember that your "rich" may not be enough to stay that way.

Lev · 11-25-2004, 09:15 PM

The problem is that after the US got off the Gold standard during the Nixon administration, the only thing backing up the greenback was the US' reputation. This reputation can get seriously rocked by deficits and balance of payment issues.

Proof: see the inverse relationship between gold and the US dollar during the 70's WHICH is happening AGAIN now! Gold goes up, dollar goes down.

By being tied to something of actual value, the dollar is tempered and retains its value. Post Gold Standard, it's anyone's guess when it will stabilize... specially with the Chinese Yuan piggybacking on it.
