Yep. And the market isn't in stupid mode. That's been my mistake at times along the way.  The U.S. might as well be lighting the currency on fire. Don't bother comparing to other fiat currencies doing the same thing - just look at asset prices to see what's happening to your purchasing power.  If you were a weird kid, like me, and ever said something like "daddy, what would it be like if we had hyperinflation" ...the correct answer would be that asset prices, including the equity market, would go into berserko mode. Global warming could actually be from the huge bonfires where they're incinerating our currencies
