Have we discussed the Milkshake theory? It appears to be happening.

Dollar soars and everything else tanks
Not sure the outcome or even if it is bad for the dollar but it appears to be happening. Go look at a currency chart for the past year.

I have followed a few people suggesting this Theory earlier in 2022. I kind of wrote it off but the thought has popped back up in my mind lately

Johnson is still of the opinion that the effect will continue into 2023

Strong the Dollar milkshake really is.

So what does it mean? How do we take advantage of it?

Well if you want to take those overseas trips you’ve always wanted too now is a good time as the dollar will go farther.
Essentially you should see an increase in imports and a decrease in exports

Remember when everyone was convinced that the dollar would be destroyed and worthless?

So my dollar is stronger and can buy more goods? Interesting.

Thanks for linking your post.
Watched the cliffs version, and the gentleman intimated the need for a "hedge", with no indication of the hedge move.
Anyone have ideas? Is it precious metals? Pooka shells?

That's because he understands the monetary system. There are very few people that do and they don't get lots of airtime with the printing money crowd because it's basically a polar opposite view. It's present day reality versus the end game. Most people can't differentiate the scenarios.
Good luck to the HODL crowd when that flows through corporate earnings

So does this imply we haven’t printed too much money?

The Federal Reserve printed exactly $0.00 since QE1

The issue I see is that the dollar has appreciated so much, 12.5% against the Yuan since the spring, that when the Fed starts to get inflation under control the dollar will weaken, which will cause inflation to rise again.
A Fed study found that every 1% rise in the dollar causes a 0.3% drop in non-petroleum imports. So a 12.5% drop in the dollar will add 3.75% to shite we buy. That could be offset a little by companies not experiencing such drastic currency exchange losses but probably not much.

The cost of living adjustments are basically permanent because we haven’t appropriately utilized anti trust to keep market concentration low in our most important industries. Plus the addition of embedding government in those industries. That’s not a product of printing money. Calling away bad debt doesn’t fix those problems but it does make it worse without legislators legislating competently.

Glad I didn't say something dumb in that thread
I compared the USD to Jameis Winston on the Saints earlier this morning. It's very flawed but the best the world has.
