The US dollar retreated on concerns of the huge issuance of government bonds, whereas commodity-linked and other high-yield currencies improved strongly.

Prieur du Plessis,
This article is crammed with a wide array of quotes and soundbites from third parties but I did not find any coherent theme or analysis from yourself. The title refers to an investment 'postcard' but the article is more like an essay or pamphlet - except that essays and pamphlets typically address a specific topic in depth. I'm sorry, but I have to question why you are posting this material on this blog and I also note that I was already fully aware of the content w.r.t. economic issues that interest me. Sometimes, less is more. I suggest that shorter articles that did deeper into specific investment issues would be more interesting.
