That's not the same as keeping your money or investments in a non-US bank to avoid the Trump destruction of the USD.

Unless you have dual citizenship somewhere else, I don’t think you can have a non-US bank or brokerage account.


I do. At the rate the US is going, I'm going to go there and I'd rather put my money there now before my $1 buys .50 Euro.

Correct, chicken little.


Super helpful, jacka$$. Doubt you even have two nickels to rub together but probably post here all the time about how much money you have to make yourself feel good.


Why would you think that your little scheme is going to work. US stock market is down so I think I'll buy foreign currency! Great plan, go for it genius!


You don't seem to understand that foreign currencies are not linked to the US Stock market, and that the original question appears to be more of one concerning the devaluation of the dollar. Not really about the stock market.

If you don't have it in your hands, you technically don't own it.

You don't need a non-US account. Schwab Global accounts let you hold foreign currency and trade in EU markets. I'm sure there are others.

That is not stable. You do not seem to know what stable means.
