The dollar is not a store of value. Never leave your money sitting in dollars. Do something with it. Buy stuff. Gold, real estate, stocks. Something real. The dollar will continue to lose value.

QFT. The US debt is accelerating at a rate that makes bankruptcy inevitable. It is only a question of when the dollar becomes worthless and a new currency will be created.

It looks like a stupid question as it was put. But there are some interesting points what comes to currency differences, e.g. the dollar is weaker than the euro, so one earns less money than what would be the case if one would be playing in euro tables. But one does get some compensations playing at the dollar (or still weaker currency tables) tables and that is the lower rake cap.

statistical indicators suggest at least 4 or 5 cents of the current CAD push is speculative momentum which will correct shortly.

alright SMARTY PANTS, why aren't the pros capitalizing on this?

or in other words, what are you trying to say?

[/ QUOTE ]

the pros will capitalize on this which will bring about the correction.

in other words, on a purely technical basis, the canadian economy does not merit CAD at par with USD. any more condescending questions?
