For years I have enjoyed Mark Helprin's novels - "Winter's Tale" is specifically quite good.  What many may not have known is that Helprin is a pretty prolific and uncompromising political opinion writer - and I believe that for many of my readers he may come off as strident and absolutist.  In other words, his writing not the typical dreamy political ramblings of an arts-oriented observer.  This is from his latest in the Wall Street Journal, which is sure to raise some objections among some of you, myself included:

The U.S. dollar rose on Wednesday as news that China would act to restrict redundant investments underscored concerns about a global recovery and tempered the positive impact of data showing a jump in new U.S. home sales.

Reports that China intends to curb excessive investment in a range of industries “hurts the strong global growth outlook and is one of the things moving the dollar today,” said Chuck Butler, president of Everbank World Markets in St. Louis.

Investors tend to buy the dollar and yen as safe havens or unwind trades in higher-yielding assets financed with the U.S. and Japanese currencies when recovery optimism fades.
