The US Dollar Is Going To Fall For Years

"I think the dollar is going to fall for years. It's not going to fall every day, or every week. There are going to be periods of time where the dollar rallies -- that's how markets work.

Like a bull market climbs a wall of worry, a bear market follows a slope of hope. And there's always going to be hope that the dollar is going to recover, based on maybe the Fed will raise interest rates. Maybe the U.S. economy will improve. But none of that is going to help the dollar.

I think the dollar's fate has been sealed by the policies being pursued by the government and the Federal Reserve, and unfortunately it's a grim fate." in Motley Fool
