A cheap dollar has some benefit it makes foriegn purchases of American goods and services less expensive. This increases demand for our products. On the other hand, it makes foriegn doods and services mor expensive for Americans.

The value of the dollar against foriegn curencies is influenced by supply and demandced , aswell as by the price of oil and the amount of oil being sold in the markets.

There is a whole lot more to the picture than just Treasury and Fed...

Just be glad we aren't in an inflationary cycle along with the recession. Remember stag-flation?

You can buy 100 trillion dollar Zimbabwean notes on eBay for a few bucks. Bear in mind, as recently as the 1980's the Zimbabwean dollar was worth more than the US dollar. Until they stabilized the currency it was running about 12.8 billion to one USD.

But fiat currency train wrecks like that only happen in the third world...or places like Weimar Germany, or Hungary in the 1940's.

Right, Mr. Bernanke?

NEW YORK (TheStreet) - U.S. dollar was mostly firmer vs. majors, with EUR/USD making new multi-year low at 1.1876 before bouncing unsuccessfully toward 1.20. Hungary stabilized but pressure on France and the core rose and so downward pressure on EUR to continue

The End IS NEAR !!!!!

American goods/products???? You mean there's good/products products that are still 'made in the usa'? Not enough to offset the trade inbalances that we have with just about every other country we trade with(see today new anything with president obama at the G20 summit).WE buy/import more goods than we sell/export overall. A cheap dollar isn't really much help to us(the US) overall.
