Can the U.S. Dollar Become Almighty Once Again?

If the upward trend continues – and there are good reasons to think it will – then the U.S. dollar could become almighty once again. The dollar’s decline over the past 30 years has been far greater than most Americans realize. It has lost almost half its value against other major currencies since 1985 and is down 33% in the past 11 years alone.

US Stocks Close Lower, Ending Dow’s 10-Day Rally
U.S. stocks fell Friday, ending the longest winning streak for the Dow Jones industrial average in nearly 17 years. The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 25.03 points, or 0.2 percent, to 14,514.11. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 2.53, or 0.2 percent, to 1,560.70.

On Thursday, the Dow closed out a 10-day winning streak, its longest since November 1996. The string of wins pushed the Dow up 484.65 points, or 3.4 percent, to a Thursday close of 14,539.14. The index’s closing price on Feb. 28, just before the rally began, was 14,054.49.
