Look for Near-Term Dollar Recovery

December 15, 2019
The dollar extended the down move that began at the start of the month last week.  It fell against nearly all the currencies in the world but the yen and Turkish lira.

Greenback Breaks Down

June 23, 2019
The US dollar fell against all the world's currencies last week.
