Are you aware of just how strong the US dollar is right now?

It depends on how you look at it. But I am getting less and less CHF for the dollars I am earning and this is going on since Trump.

From my POV dollar is losing value nearly the same rate as the euro.

What can realistically replace the dollar as the global reserve currency?

the strength of the dollar is exactly why people want to move away from it.

financing domestic purchases with a foreign currency is expensive.
