by Summary:
I joined Charles Payne on Fox Business TV for a broad economic discussion today. Payne, like many, are concerned that the Fed continues to tighten and worries this is going to end the business cycle. He also argued that the strong dollar was a significant threat of US multinational earnings. Charles Payne on Fox Business TV In this roughly 6.5 minute clip of the entire discussion (here), I suggest that the best thing for the large US multinational companies, who have accounting, tax, and business incentives to hedge currency risk, is not a weaker dollar but stronger world growth.

The Fed’s rate hikes, I think, do help underpin the dollar.

I suggested that nearly anyone else who is qualified to be Fed chair, including the past chairs (I somehow and inexplicably drop Bernanke from the list in a lapse on my part) would be doing that same thing.
