There's just no lasting power in any currency rally VS the dollar right now. And as I keep going saying, this is reminding me so much of 2005 when the dollar covered up its pimples and posed for GQ, only to see the pimples pop through the makeup by year-end....

* Euro tracks toward $1.55... * Japanese Yen hits 8 year high... * Update on Indian Rupee... * Buffet continues to invest into currencies......
