Since hittin a at 21-month high in June, the US Dollar Index has struggled to regain an upward move. The dollar has also withstood a general risk appetite run that has otherwise lifted equities and other growth linked assets to 2-month highs. This resistance taps into the a fundamental current that has defined a tangible deterioration in growth along with expectations for yields.. a sense sense of hope. However, rational assessment of risk and reward offers a very discouraging picture of the investment landscape. For potential return, the aggregate yield of the major currencies’ 10-year government notes are just off of the record low we saw back in June. Treasuries are 38 percent lower than the low-point back in 2009. The only reprieve in the standard equilibrium is that volatility readings are still low and set lower peaks when they do swell. This could be the greatest effect stimulus has had.
