Dollar -- For whatever reason, the near-term trend of the dollar has turned up. Remember many months ago I said that debt was a "synthetic short" against the dollar. The world is choking with debt, and suddenly the bank illiquidity has resulted in the big squeeze. Everybody needs dollars, there's a shortage of dollars. You stay out of bankruptcy, you pay off your debts with dollars.

All this debt, I said, represented a synthetic short against dollars. And I'm wondering, are the dollar shorts being backed against the wall now? Could be. At any rate, the daily chart below shows you what's happening to the US dollar. If you're in trouble and you need dollars, they've suddenly become more expensive.
