For the third year in a row I have witnessed what eventually leads to USD reversing and accelerate in a likely already existing downtrend. It is remarkable how cause and effect are here at play, because it starts with a slow descent of USD as investors moving from USD to safe havens like JPY, CHF and Gold.
Due to tight correlations JPY and CAD are dragged down in the fall of USD (1). Then both currencies detach (2) from USD because the above mentioned correlations are being overpowered by others pulling them back into their cycles (3).
