Making Sense of the Dollar, by Marc Chandler

Overview

Is the dollar's place in the world lost? Did globalization really destroy the American industry?

Making Sense of the Dollar explores the many factors - trade deficits, the dollar's role in the world, globalization, capitalism, and more - that affect the dollar and U.S. economy and lead to the inescapable conclusion that both are much stronger than people suppose. 

Marc Chandler has been covering the global capital markets for over twenty years as a foreign exchange strategist for several Wall Street firms. He is one of the most widely respected and quoted currency experts today.

Reviews

"Lucid and well-written...required reading for the expert as well as the lay person."
Vera Jelinek, Ph.D., Divisional Dean, Center for Global Affairs, New York University

"If you prefer economic literature that dwells entirely in abstraction and theory based analysis, then this book may not be for you; Mr. Chandler focuses on real world situations and knowledge derived from his experience in the foreign exchange market."

"A must for anyone involved in foreign exchange markets...perfectly timed, given the critical juncture in global currency markets."
Hari N. Hariharan, Chairman and CEO, NWI Management LP

"Chandler presents strong and compelling arguments why the American dollar will remain the numeraire for years to come."
