  7. Apparently the market is in agreement with me. Ben Bernanke too. This dollar rally last week was a deadcat bounce in a long term crash mode, fishing for naive dollar bottom pickers - who's about to get spanked as Bernanke prints more money.

    Ben Bernanke will print gazillions more money until everyone is a millionaire. If you know what I mean :D

    Toldya buy the dip ... more rally coming because of more money printing, Zimbabwe style.

    Here's what S&P will look like as Ben Bernanke prints more and more money:

  10. I'm adding my short position USD/MXN again

    Peso should triple (or at least double) as Bernanke prints more money. I'm not kidding.
