The dollar continues to be overvalued IMO and is a big theme to my investment portfolio. Wait until the fed is forced to drop interest rates again then the value of the dollar will really erode.

Seems like the Feds have themselves a pretty sticky situation to deal with in the new year. Raise the rates to keep inflation from flaring up and attract more international investors? Lower rates to keep growth going, ward off getting into recession territory and adjust the bond market's inverted yield?
It should be interesting.

I just got back from a three week trip split between England, France and Austria.
I know the pain of a week dollar! It hurt every time I pulled out my wallet.
