If you are thinking of placing an order for bergers or parts made in the USA , they are predicting that the US dollar will soar when the Donald is elected president, as people temporarily move funds out of the share market due to the uncertainty created ......
just a thought ... maybe a 50% chance ?
The U.S. Dollar

Re: The U.S. Dollar
This would probably be better on an economics forum 
Who knows which way it will go, the notion that they will raise rates, and lets face it, that has been a notion for nigh a decade now, is purely sentiment, every time they say they will the dollar goes up and then, poof, for some reason we cannot.
Then there is their ever increasing debt, china's sell off of US treasuries, brexit, changing demand on commodities...
Buy what you need when you need, it could easily go the other way....

Re: The U.S. Dollar
Doesn't matter. If you read US forums, they're already in panic buying mode there as ussal, so either way, it will be lean times for us.
Re: The U.S. Dollar
Here is a solid outlook also.
If we can only elect a gubnit that can actually spend money wisely, and reduce waste, we'll be laughing...

Re: The U.S. Dollar
I didn't think the USD went up or down just every other currency compared to it
If the investors leave the USD there would be more demand for other currencies and we know what happens then
Speculation is just that
