Behind the Dollar’s Woes – BusinessWeek
Many factors, including the threat of deeper rate cuts at home and stronger economic performance elsewhere, are piling up against the U.S. dollar
I sure hope that the dollar stops falling against every other currency. We’re already paying 10% more for our products simply on currency rate changes. That doesn’t even take into account the increases in raw materials and transportation that are eating into our margins. I hope that whoever wins the presidential nomination focuses on real economic policies that are going to help everyone, not just special interest groups that happen to be in swing states. If only Mitt Romney were still in the race, I’d feel a lot more confident.
