If you want the major stock market indexes to trade higher you must have the U.S. Dollar Index decline. That has certainly happened in the month of September. The ironic part is that most stocks are denominated in U.S. Dollars. Therefore, even though stocks are rising the purchasing power in the U.S. Dollar has dropped by about 11.0 percent offsetting any real stock gains. The U.S. Dollar Index is the stock market right now. Hats off to Bernanke and friends for pulling the wool over our eyes.
