RE: Why The Weak US Dollar Trend is about to Turn STRONG (in photos)
Well, i think equity's are or will be considered a saver haven. Like the Swiss central bank is buying US stock. After all, when the EU falls apart, the first thing which will collapse is the European Bonds market. Money will probably move to the USA, but in the end, while the US is slowly losing economic power through internal struggles, the capital will move further east.
Good point about capital continuing to move further East. I am not sure about the equity's though. During the last financial crisis equity markets around the world got crushed. When QE was introduced they soared. If Central Banks are able to do any type of QE, then yes. But I think they are out of ammunition. My thoughts are if we crisis hits the monetary system is revamped creating a new type of currency or basket of currencies. After all of that is resolved the equity markets would resume their climbs.
I understand your reasoning, but when investing let's say 10.000 usd. You feel more secure holding 10k at your saving accounts or buying shares in a strong, money making company? I choose the latter and in case of hyperinflation, your money become worthless, healthy company's will survive the crisis, excepts some banks.
