Can someone explain why it isn't disingenuous to look at Euros?

Firstly, euros cost now as much as they did three years ago. So that is clearly a price that can be reached with any number of causes. Then, UK pounds cost only what they did last September. And other world currencies? Values vs the dollar are all over the map, up, down, and nearly unchanged. No clear trend at all.

I had heard a good way to check the absolute value of dollars is to google USDX. Guess what? It's not particularly low, well within the normal range of ups and downs.

Because Capital flight is the problem, not declining value of USD.

The fall of dollar was caused by capital flight. Money is moving mainly into Euro-area. Not UK, not elsewhere.

Investors are taking money out from the US. They sell assets, get dollars, then covert them to other currencies and take them out of country.
