Gold Down and US Dollar Up in December: Temporary Fund Repatriations

The US Dollar has recovered quite a bit in December. It is possible that this is due to fund repatriation by US companies doing business abroad as they convert their gains in foreign currency back into US Dollars. If this is the case, then the appreciation of the US Dollar would be temporary and the fall would resume in January. This would include the recent fall in gold (plus the fact the Paulson is launching a huge gold fund in January, thus prices needed to be lower).
