真所谓墙倒众人推,美元对多种货币都创下了新低,官方的,各国央行抛售美元储备,其他投机者就更不用说了,做空美元,买入贵金属,原油等保值工具。连我这个小小的投机分子,也趁机踩上一脚。爽啊!如果,18日真的如市场预期的那样减息,情况可能会更恶劣。4 [3 F F D/ Z1 t. m) {; ]0 T

I think I'll still stay away from US stocks that put their focus on US domestic market. International conglomerates and ADRs are still attractive since their income/assets are dominated in currencies other than US$./ p/ R7 N, \! I \. V& ~ c

China seemingly insatiable demand for copper,iron ore, nickel and other metals seems set to continue. it would be a Chinese economic slowdown, not a collapse of house prices in USA, that would spell bad news for the mining sector. * [" Q- C9 I" T' N( }' u ~
