Q: I believe the US dollar is significantly over-valued due to geopolitics, and I anticipate it will gradually return to more normal over the next 4-12 months. What strategy (or equities) would you recommend to take advantage of this return to normal. Shorting the US dollar is an obvious option, but I see it as a bit too risky.
Q: Hi,
I converted most of my cad to usd and have been doing investments in us companies and recently sold many of the tech due to the noise regarding interest rates. How can I preserve my usd cash from depreciation against cad without changing back to cad . I have seen a drop from 1.3 conversion to now at 1.2 and it seems the general view is that it may hit 1.

Q: I have a diversified US dollar portfolio, hold US stocks, and with the increasing in the US$, I have a 40% FX gain. I want to continue to hold the US stocks but also lock in the FX gain. To lock it in, I take it that a hedge would be required. Please suggest ways I could do this, including the "instruments". I am asking you this because I assume it is a good idea, aka action to take.
