        <Name>Fed On Board with Orderly Decline of the U.S. Dollar</Name>
        <Summary>Greenback weakens in currency trading</Summary>
        <Description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"&gt;It's open season on the &lt;b&gt;U.S. dollar&lt;/b&gt; today in forex trading as &lt;a href="http://blog.gftuk.com/public/item/246088" target="_blank" title="gold, U.S. dollar, greenback currency trading, currency trading, forex trading, dollar forex trading, Kathy Lien, FX360"&gt;gold gets ready for another surge&lt;/a&gt;, and as stocks get ready for a higher open. Additionally, the fact that the Federal Reserve sees the dollar's decline as orderly and acceptable, it is an indication that &lt;b&gt;dollar strength&lt;/b&gt; is not going to be very heavily defended.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"&gt;However, the Fed isn't all rosy on the dollar's weakness. The body is aware of the risks associated with a declining greenback in currency trading, as &lt;b&gt;Kathy Lien&lt;/b&gt; reports in&lt;a href="http://www.fx360.com/commentary/kathy/2361/us-dollar-what-the-fed-expects.aspx?aid=5704" target="_blank" title="gold, U.S. dollar, greenback currency trading, currency trading, forex trading, dollar forex trading, Kathy Lien, FX360"&gt; FX360&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;blockquote&gt;
    &lt;p&gt; &lt;font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"&gt;According to the minutes of the November 4th monetary policy meeting,
Fed officials have grown increasingly aware of the risks associated
with low interest rates and a weak dollar. &lt;b&gt;Some of the FOMC members
noted the possibility of negative side effects that might result from
very low interest rates &lt;/b&gt;such as excessive risk taking in financial
markets or an unanchoring of inflation expectations. Although the
likelihood of this happening is &amp;ldquo;relatively low,&amp;rdquo; they are telling the
markets that they will keep an eye on these risks.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"&gt;The real news that is helping the &lt;b&gt;risk trade &lt;/b&gt;today, though, is the fact that the Federal Reserve has revised its economic forecast to paint a happier picture of what's ahead:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
