There appears to be an acceptance of a weaker dollar trend even if Europe and Japan are not happy with it. The Americans are probably only too happy to see the dollar depreciate.

It's good for the U.S. to see a relatively weaker dollar, but it's not a good idea for the U.S. Treasury to signal it wants a weaker dollar. The decline in the U.S. currency could be faster than they wish.

It's not that Japan or Europe have better accounting systems than we do,

Climate change is not something that can be tackled only by Japan or only by Europe,

A weakening dollar is a trend we see continuing.

The trend should be a weakening one for the Australian dollar.
