A boom in what? Prices? Too much debt and wages too low for too long. Where is the consumption going to come from. If rates go up there will be a bust as global debt levels are unservicable. I'd say the US dollar is stronger as it is needed to buy hard assets like commodities. People will exit it soon. Precious metals spot prices are set in a rigged paper market. If you see the price go down don't think for one second that this represents mass selling of physical bullion.
