Is the dollar f'ing with your internet shopping?

As of this month you are paying roughly 20% more now for american goods and 33% more for japanese goods, I did the maths a few nights ago. It's pretty ridiculous.

If I had invested $1,000,000 in american dollars two months ago then converted back to aussie dollars today, I would have made a very quick $200,000.

It's funny talking to people who have no sense of the dollar, thinking it is always $2 AU = $1 US. I've spoken to people who thought this when it was $1.00 AUD = $0.93 USD.

Sit it out, it will change, the market is very volatile at the moment. On the bright side interest rates are back to normal :D.
