The strengthening dollar is what will curtail overseas investment. That's the cycle that will take place in the US, not a downward spiraling cycle, but the typical business cycle we've observed over the past fourty to fifty years.

There's a reason that US government bonds yield the lowest return of all government bonds in the world. It's the most stable economy on Earth, and hence least risky to invest in.

And while we're mentioning academic credentials, BS in Finance/Economics with a minor in math, and an MBA in finance.

And Schneed wins the thread.

Where'd you get your MBA? I've been looking at doing my MBA in Finance while still working...aw hell, I'll PM you some time.
