Financial Advisor Looks at the Strength of the U.S. Dollar

Tubbergen offers his radio shows as podcasts on his radio website.

Grand Rapids, MI -- (SBWire) -- 09/10/2013 --It is difficult to stay abreast of everything that is happening financially in the United States today. Dennis Tubbergen, a financial advisor, author, radio show host and CEO of PLP Advisors, LLC can be counted on to give a hand when it comes to understanding the latest events in U.S. and world economics.

Whether people enjoy his monthly newsletter at http://www.moving-markets.com or his blog at http://www.dennistubbergen.com, Tubbergen is dedicated to sharing his viewpoints and opinions. On September 11, 2013 his blog was titled U.S. Dollar Continues to Gain Strength: Why?

"According to a Bloomberg article, the U.S. Dollar reached a seven-week high against a basket of other currencies in spite of the fact that the Federal Reserve continues money printing at what could be described as a torrid, $1 trillion per year pace," began Tubbergen.

Below he quotes from the September 3, 2013 article.

The dollar rose to a seven-week high after a report showed U.S. manufacturing expanded in August to the fastest pace since June 2011, fueling expectation the Federal Reserve will start cutting bond purchases this month.

The greenback reached a one-month high versus the yen after an Israeli missile test raised concern that conflict in the Middle East was escalating amid the prospect of U.S. intervention in Syria, boosting demand for haven assets. Australia’s dollar rose after the nation’s Reserve Bank held its benchmark rate unchanged. Indonesia’s rupiah slipped to a more-than-four-year low.

Tubbergen's blog shows his readers a chart that tracks the strength of the U.S. Dollar against six other currencies. He feels looking at a weekly chart shows a decline and advance in this country's Dollar since July 16, leaving the overall price movement - a suprising neutral.

"While a look at the daily chart might have one concluding that the U.S. Dollar could get weaker over the short term, I expect it will continue to trend upward as it has since early 2009," concluded Tubbergen. "Not because our Dollar is the currency that it once was. It’s just the best choice from a bunch of bad ones."
