There's quite a bit of gloom and doom regarding the [US] dollar, people saying it is going to 'stay down' this time.
I personally think it is all hog wash and feel that within the next two years if the US Citizenship has bounced out of their political apathy and elected a president
worthy of leading the USA, the economy will stabilize.

If that is the case, a diverse portfolio wouldn't hurt; allowing you to make a little money or lose a little money without it being a drastic effect upon the whole.

How much diversification is enough? Many financial planners recommend no more than 10 percent in a single holding. Portfolio managers often may limit a single holding in a portfolio to 5 percent and trim appropriately when necessary.
