The US Dollar Threads A Needle Posted: 17 Dec 2010 01:50 AM PST Pre-holiday cheer is certainly evident in the financial markets. The overwhelming consensus is that the Congressional agreement to not raise taxes while extending hundreds of billions in new stimulus will finally allow the recovery to take hold.
