  11. Scenario: Future of USD • Good • benign decline • Neutral/Bad • end of QE strengthens USD • Ugly • reserve currency no more As the economy strengthens, the dollar might fall as it did in the 2002-2007 period.

If US fiscal issues or other concerns cause foreign holders to dump USD, an inflation shock could derail the markets.
