The dollar continued to rally against the euro yesterday.
It reached its highest level against the euro since January, after Jean-Claude Juncker, chairman of eurozone finance ministers, said the single currency was overvalued.
Dan Denning says the dollar rally will continue to push down key commodity prices in the short term. The problem is there’s little to support the dollar’s climb over time.
This makes mining stocks a bargain for the long-term investor.

Russell McDougal at Investor’s Daily Edge says there is too much dollar-based debt that can’t be paid back for the buck to survive in its present form. Another Nixonian dollar default is coming, this time via hyperinflation. And the same people who have sentenced the greenback to death will be launching its replacement, the Amero.

Year to date, gold has declined (-)2%.

The Sovereign Society’s currency analyst, Sean Hyman, says investors should stick to trading currencies. There are over 13,000 stocks open to public trading. But there are only eight major traded global currencies. This makes it far easier to keep track of movements and trends. And it means there’s more chance of picking a winner…
