A softer dollar has probably contributed to a rampaging stock market. The question for investors—and the Trump administration—is whether that will continue to be case now that Washington appears to have fully embraced dollar weakness as a trade-policy tool. “If equities like a weak USD (U.S. dollar) then there is a good chance U.S. policy makers will like a weak/weaker USD, too. The same holds true for trade policy,” said Alan Ruskin, macro strategist at Deutsche Bank, in a Wednesday note. U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Wednesday told reporters at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, that a weaker dollar “is good for us as it relates to trade and opportunities.”via
