Much of the dollar's recent strength is attributable to something the President has little direct control over: steep interest rates. At present levels of 17.5% for three-month deposits, American banks are paying interest rates far above the U.S.'s 13% inflation rate. The interest rate in West Germany is only around 9%, while in Japan it is about 8%.
