      What we should calculate is how low should dollar’s value drop, in order for the USA bankruptcy to get avoided. The oil invasion and seize in Venezuela, raised the US assets, but still the debt and the monetary expansion are out of control

    2. I think Trump wants the dollar and the interest rates down.
      A cheap American dollar with interest rates down should maybe create good conditions for the growth of investment in businesses.
      It’s supposed to work but IMO Trump’s political actions to destroy the world economy and his unpredictable behaviour on everything will make investors not interested in investing in the USA.

      Trump and Republicans are not going to pay the debt they owe. I do not understand why anyone is holding dollars at this point. The reserve currency umbrella the US enjoyed for so long is history at this point. It is only going to get worse when the stock market melts down after the AI bubble bursts.
