<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eric the Red, post: 26538282, member: 118899&quot;]Timing is everything in investing and times are changing. Trump needs a weaker dollar to bring back US manufacturing. This has been publicly stated many times and seems to be the way things are going.</p><p><br /></p><p>A weaker dollar will make U.S. production more cost-effective and globally competitive, but it comes at the cost of reduced domestic purchasing power and potential inflationary pressures. So I&#039;m thinking both inflation and a weaker dollar are gonna be around for quite a while, which will only benefit the price of gold. </p><p><br /></p><p>•A weaker US dollar is generally bad for US Treasury bills (T-bills) because it makes them less attractive to foreign investors, potentially reducing demand and increasing yields. </p><p><br /></p><p>• A weaker US dollar can have mixed effects on the stock market, potentially boosting US multinational and export companies while hurting those focused on domestic sales and potentially leading to an outflow of capital from US stocks towards international assets. A falling dollar makes US exports cheaper and increases the value of foreign profits for multinationals, but it can also increase inflation and reduce consumer purchasing power. Overall, the impact depends on the specific company&#039;s business model and global exposure. There is no doubt current economic uncertainty in both US markets and in the US Dollar. All are beneficial to the price of gold.</p><p><br /></p><p>•Hyperinflation or currency debasement may be the only real way to pay off US debt. </p><p><br /></p><p>But on a side note Berkshire Hathaway is currently holding more T Bills than the Federal Reserve.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> However, central banks globally now hold more gold than U.S. Treasuries, a historic shift that has occurred for the first time in three decades.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
