Moreover, the entire investment world currently depends on the dollar and its money flow. Put simply, global loans made in USD need to be paid back with interest in USD. Dollar Milkshake theory explains a USD rally in terms of market dynamics of demand for dollars exceeding their supply Dollar Milkshake When the Fed, the world’s central bank by default, raises base rates and does quantitative tightening, another way for saying the central bank becomes a seller of assets, that limits the global supply of dollars. Meanwhile, foreign countries and companies “need north of a trillion USD just to make interest payments on dollar-based debt,” according to Brent Johnson. Moreover, to add to this USD liquidity drought the US Treasury is issuing dollar-denominated bonds to obtain funding for US infrastructure projects. So the Dollar Milkshake theory supports the USD bull market argument going forward."
