Previous Post: US Dollar Forecast – Weakness
Here are the very strong fundamentals for a lower US dollar:
(a) US inflation exploding.
(b) Massive US twin deficits.
(c) Better conditions in Europe.
However French election worries in 2022 Q1 and Q2 may provide US dollar strength (via European weakness) after Christmas, but this strength may come after a low in the DXY near $84.
It looks like Yellen knows a down swing in the US dollar is near because today she jaw bones strength into the US dollar.

..“It is much harder to sell stocks correctly than to buy them correctly.” Because of the emotional aspect of trading, if a “stock went up, the average investor would hold because he wants more gains – he’s exhibiting greed. If the stock declines, he also holds on and hopes the stock will come back so he can at least sell and break even – he’s hoping against hope”..
