US stands at 334% debt/gdp, compared with 460% in the 17 economies in the euro-currency zone, and 655% in Japan. If two people had an income of $100,000, and one had debts of $460,000 and the other $334,000, isn't it better to owe $126,000 less which is better for your currency? as it would attract more investors. I personally would rather do business with the second person because he is less likely to go bankrupt. Therefore the US Dollar Index is definitely going above 100, but not sure where it will peak out either 105, 110, 115, or 120. The thing is you can have more debt and an appreciating currency if the central bank is not printing as much. I think that's the case for Germany in control over the Eurozone so there is a top in the Dollar just not yet.
