Does The World Have Faith In America?
Hello,
Just some news off the wire, Russian stock market is being affected by this also. Looks like the world is losing a lot of faith in the American Dollar! Russian stocks down about 7 % today.
=================================
LONDON (Reuters) - World stocks nosedived and demand for safe-haven bonds and currencies soared on Monday as fears gripped investors that a deteriorating U.S. economy would drag others down with it.
The losses on the blue-chip stock indexes of Germany, Britain and France alone amounted to more than $350 billion, or roughly the size of the combined economies of New Zealand, Hungary and Singapore.
MSCI's main world stock index, a benchmark gauge of stock markets globally, sank 3.3 percent, falling below its 2007 bottom to lows last seen in December 2006 and taking it down more than 12 percent so far this year.
Its emerging market equities counterpart lost more than 5.5 percent. Meanwhile, the spread between emerging market bond yields and U.S. Treasury yields, a key gauge of risk appetite, was just off its widest in two years.
"Weak global economic data, poor corporate data, increasing fears about the possibility of a recession ... have left investors drowning in a sea of red," said Henk Potts, equity strategist at Barclays Stockbrokers.

I hear rumor that England is having to back the banks with a lot of their Nations money??
I also hear that Bush is asking countries for help and to still believe in America??
Looks like my articles are correct, The Dollar is going down! (Thump)

This is not something I am proud of & wish that America would have dealt with her problems years ago. I was in the business of making money for companies all my working career! This was a problem that has been in the works for many years. Now it is a problem for the world!
Do you think that there is a replacement Dollar in the works?
America is going to have to bite the bullet on this one!

It would appear that we are in for a hard ride for a while. A recession has been forestalled for years by sweet talk, interest rate cuts and market manipulation. That does not necessarily mean an end to the dollar, since everyone is going to be hit, but it might, if China starts buying Euros instead.
The whole world is probably in for a hard ride. My question about the future is China? They seem to hold a lot of cards and they have a lot of money to back it up ! We will wait and see,
