Para qué revaluarlo?  se dicen los ‘inversores’ del WS si con este USD se transfiere la crisis neoliberal a los países dependientes. Real revaluación seria dotar al USD con  base en oro, lo que 1ro requiere la confiscación del oro existente como lo hizo FDR. Los del PENTA y NATO creen que para revaluarlo hay que confiscar el oro RU-Chino   con el WW3, ese es un sueño enfermizo: schizoid y self destructive. La schizophrenia es camino seguro al MAD y los virus que dejaría el WW3 serían más agresivos que el hoy no pudimos resolver con nuestro incipiente sistema de salud. Entonces, si queda vida, esta no tendría razón de ser, regresaríamos a la antropofagia de los trogloditas.

Today we have the biggest 9-day surge in the dollar (a shocking 8%-plus) ever - more than when Soros broke the Bank of England...

Finally, as a reminder, Santiago Capital explains why The Fed Swap Lines aren't working... (and in fact are making things worse)...
Just a quick note to remind everyone that dollars flowing via swap lines are not a gift.
They are loans.
Loans are future demand for dollars.

Demand.
Demand for dollars is off the charts.
So while swap lines provide ST liquidity,
they increase overall demand.
THEY INCREASE DEMAND pic.twitter.com/NTzJOTNbvu

For a month, global stock markets refused to take any notice of the virus that was taking hold in China... not our problem... we'll be fine... Fed will rescue us... v-shaped recovery... and then...
