Due to the slow economic recoveries of both America and Japan, the dollar and the yen are weakening against almost all global currencies, which mean their central banks are highly unlikely to raise interest rates any time soon. The past few weeks have been vastly different in comparison to the past few months, and economic fundamentals are the driving factor in asset allocation in the stock market. Even as the dollar sinks, U.S. stocks have continued to rise because American corporations are profitable, strong and on the rise.
