Given the resent USD sell off with unlimited QE for the foreseeable future, do you feel collapse is around the corner? 3 options.

It will collapse that I am sure, the when is what I am not sure about.

And its not just the US dollar the entire world economy is run on fiat money and the whole thing is sitting on a timebomb, and the readout is broken....

Hopefully those with the power to do something figure out what to do before everything blows apart.

If the dollar collapses it'll be because "they" (whoever they are) want it to collapse. If we can see all this coming you can be sure that the billionaires of the world see it coming too. From my view the politicians and the Central bankers are the employees of the ultra powerful, not just some misguided fools who happened to stumble into their positions.

It's not a question of dollar collapse, as all the major central banks are easing coordinated, together...it's a question of when will all the majors be significantly devalued collectively against commodities, primarily, to the point that some idiot in power demands one world currency? (george soros, for starters).

Inflation will continue to soar, as wages are currently biting the dust, while commodities, especially vital ones, like oil and crops, and cost of electricity (coal) are skyrocketing.......all on purpose, you betcha.
Too close for pips, switching to points.

Only thing that will cause USD to collapse is OIL...its not allowed to be over $100 but if it sustains a move above... then all heck breaks loose (probably iran attack coming). With Oil in check you can start to see US grow back to where it was and better, along with USD rising back to all time peaks.

The bottom line "Too many cross currents today for me to make any bets"

Aside from that;

"As ever, QE is a ‘crop failure’ for the dollar. It works to strengthen the dollar and weaken demand, "

Seems a bit contradictory. Make of it what you will. It's a "crop failure" for the dollar. "It works to strengthen the dollar"

and "weaken demand" (for what)? the dollar?

idk

alright, alright...let's get to the bottom of all of this...QE is printing money, but it is done by the fed buying bonds...what bonds? bonds for what? oh, for banks...why? so they can lend more money...lend more money? why do they need more money to lend more money? because they don't have any money...what!? why? because people (individuals, business, other banks) taking out loans ARE NOT PAYING THEM BACK!!! THEY ARE STEALING!! THIEVES! and someone (society, media) has audacity to tell them it's ok to do that, that they are the victim, blah blah blah...
that this is how they take from the rich....blah blah blah...

QE may be painted to "increase demand", but it definitely lowers the dollar's general value (just look at gold's history).

You're probably right;
GBP Headed back to 1.7 levels ??
EUR headed back to 1.4/5 levels ??
Aussie headed to 1.10 ?

Ya' never know. But if you want to promote a conspiracy theory I don't buy it.
So the FED sucks. Therefore we should buy the EURO because it doesn't suck? ??

Just a thought.

Look at a USD chart. The reaction thus far has been dollar strength.
