US dollar outlook and its impact on industrial sectors  performance, 

Comment by Warren Huang -Wall Street Journal Market Beat Blog May 5, 2008 at 2:10 pm

We have to look at the dollar fundamental price and its impact on industrial sectors mechanism to track its prices.
There are not easy statistical correlation.
Dollar bull due to 6 years economic expansion and rate hikes series, while dollar weakness due to economic slowdown, recession fear resulted rate cuts expectation.
Utility,  consumer goods goods are heavily related to domestic consumer spending, strong dollar raise buying power while utility consumer going up with more manufacturing
plant demand for utility.
But continue housing market slump will drag consumer demand, ( economic stimulus will not be sufficient to support the demand slowdown) economics into recession, manufacturing activity ISM already down to 47 .Despite ISM service sectors up to 52, it will not be sustainable stay above 50 after second quarter stimulus effect is over.
Recent dollar strength come from better than expected 0.6 % GDP growth and soaring oil prices pushed inflation higher, forced Fed to end rate cycle earlier, facing inflation fighting.   However housing slump continue depress the economy, Fed facing Trilemma on rate, GDP, inflation, dollar.

OSA Energy Blog : Oil prices heading for 115- 125 as dollar weaken in summer

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008
I warned on this blog last Sept that aggressive rate cuts can not stop housing price slump , but only drag the dollar to new low ( 1.55-1.65 EURO, 90- 100 Yen, and soaaring oil, commodities price, and inflation, which raises the US import, expanding US trade deficit, the interest ratea spread and trade deficit will drag dollar even lower.
Dollar only can be supported by Fed rate hike to fight the inflation.
Fed choose to ignore inflation, while switch to rate cuts further help currecny speulators to dump dollar for higher interest rate currency EURO, Pound.
Dollar can rebound once Fed stop rate cuts.
Oil price has benn benefited by soariing US and global housing, auto, travel market demand for heating oil, fet fuel, gasoline in summer, and weak dollar, further help by rate cuts and stimulus package
to support the business and conumer demand.
Oil pricewill challenge 115- 125 , gasoline and heating to 355 this summer.

ECB 500 billion loan to commercial banks number looks big, but small comparing to 100 trillion derivatives and CDO.While facing US and global housing markets slump continue
into next summer. As I pointed out that any Fed, central banks action, injection of money into the system will not stop housing slump, stimulate credit demand for supporting the housing prices which are not sustainable.
Beside US housing bubble burst, UK, even China, and other Asian countries will join the crowddetails can be found on www.osawh.com/mortdefa.htm
