"The public statements--and again, I worked for two Treasury Secretarys, I drafted those statements...they always have to say they're in favor of a strong dollar policy. But I think if you look at the IMF studies, if you look at the independent analysis, everyone agrees that if we're going to have a balanced global situation for the next 5 years, it will feature a somewhat weaker dollar."
