Yogi was right: With the dollar, it's deja vu all over again

Updated

During difficult financial times, investors often turn to likes of Warren Buffett or George Soros for analysis. However, today we turn to another sage -- Lawrence Peter "Yogi" Berra, retired Hall of Fame New York Yankees catcher and author of yogiisms, incisive malapropisms that reveal eternal truths.

One of Yogi's best known quotes, uttered in 1961 after teammates Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris hit back-to-back home runs for the second day in a row, is: "It's déjà vu all over again." Well, it looks as far as the dollar is concerned, Yogi was insightful as usual, and it's déjà vu all over again.
