I used to get for $1US just over 63 cents AUD, now I get 65.5

I'm sorry: I'm not so much old to remember those distant times.

But I'm glad you made it this far.

More competitively priced exports for the US.

 

Fewer imports. More people buying locally. 

 

Great news.

You seem to be living in LaLa Land as you are posting an article that says the Dollar had the worst "start" since 1973, however, your thread originally claimed that the US Dollar had made "a new low". Which of course was not the case.

 

 The article does not prove you right. You're still wrong. The dollar was far, FAR, lower in 2008.

 

In addition of course you don't provide proper context which would have required you to point out that the Dollar has been on one of the most massive appreciation runs in recent memory just before its recent correction.

And in fact that the current drop of the Dollar is by DESGIN as the current administration wants the Dollar to depreciate.
