Ask HN: Will the US Dollar collapse in 2018?

5 points by useranme · 2 comments · 1 min read


Somewhere between Charlie Lee's "one huge unexpected surprise" and me thinking of diversifying more into crypto, I came across the following interview (Feb 2017) that says the USD dollar will collapse within 12-24 months (by the end of 2018.)

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/02/06/were-going-to-have-a-dollar-collapse-like-the-1980s-analyst-says.html

I read more about what needs to happen for a collapse, but I don't fully understand all the forces at play. So I thought I'd ask HN's economics experts. Will the USD collapse?

There is currently a huge bubble propping up the stock market. It's bound to crash. Maybe at the end of 2018. Invest in Gold, it maintains its value when the market crashes.

No expert here. Since last year I seen a lot of news about consumption being down in a lot of areas.
