I've never been here when it hasn't blown.

It's incredible. I was totally blown away when I was told it was $15,000 at the end of the night (of the event). Then hearing that it's more, I can never express my gratitude to the people.

What is helping the dollar is the moral persuasion of the central banks. There's been contact between the European Central Bank and national central banks that make up the ECB urging calm, urging a block on any kind of speculative trading. The Federal Reserve has also weighted in and asked that dollar trading be limited. I think that will support the currency.

There's increasing doubts (about a BOJ rate boost) due to developments in the stock market and the Sogo bankruptcy.

The dollar will trade with a downward bias. The market is pricing in an ECB rate hike Thursday and strong GDP report Friday.

If bond yields keep rising which I think they will, then not even stocks are safe from a welcome decline in energy prices. In this case lower energy prices could prove to be a Trojan horse unleashing a problematic rise in market rates.
