nauseus

Oh no - it's another I failed to mention. What you failed to mention is that the USD highs of 2022 and early 2023 came after the Fed finally realised that inflation was not "transitory", so aggressively hiked interest rates. Now these are hikes are slowing and are expected to stop, so the Dollar is retreating.

I was referring to the word decline.

This is 2023 but we're only as far as April according to my calendar and the oil price is kicking up again, can't you at least wait until the end of the year?

I'm sure you do.

You have a sweet tooth - that's why you like fudge. ????

Along with most other asset classes.

Directly proportional to the recent weakening of the USD.

I wonder how much money most people have left after paying for a roof, food and transport?

What's working??? This article is a joke and shows a classic example of how present-day economic "data" are manipulated. If food, fuel and housing are removed from the equation, then of course the inflation numbers look better. However, this will not help real people in the real world paying real bills.

Inflation is not the same "world wide" Inflation in America is partly a product of U.S. Government policy, which at the moment includes on high spending and planned high taxation - this is fiscal policy so you are wrong - it is monetary policy that is normally expected to be run by central banks.

Stripping out housing prices, food and fuel to fudge the numbers to get the numbers you want. Another nonsense article.

Dreamer. Interest rates have finally been raised to try to slow the highest inflation in more than 40 years.

From this I can only own up to the fact that you are trying to put words in my mouth. Again.

The US economy is entering early-stage paralysis already, thanks to your exalted leaders.

The fact is that open borders means security is diluted. If death by fentanyl continues, then checks will have to become feasible.

Nope.

Too late then. Another non-solution, particularly wrt deaths from imported drugs. Bravo.

I only wrote the first para. You should have stopped there.

Is that Jenny?

I don't want to use made-up stuff like you, Chomper.

It’s a good question, here’s my take. Outside the USA, a lot of people in the western world see no real problems caused by Trump's policies over 4 years. However, that same group can see the damage caused by Biden's policies over only 2+ years. Most of these people recognize that as the USA loses global influence, then their own countries become more vulnerable. So, if you remove the character assassinations, political bias and hatred, you might see why Trump still has so much support, at home and abroad....whatever the media says!

So sick of rubbish like this.

More gash. Put it back in your bin.

You must have had some interesting homes then!
