Still Holding Back - Barrons.com: Interview with Jeremy Grantham, Chairman, GMO
"What about some other trades [that might provide opportunity in this falling market]?
I'm speaking for the asset-allocation unit at the firm. We have been substantially long the safe-haven currencies. We have been very long the yen and somewhat long the Swiss franc and short sterling, which is one of our favorite bets. We have been short the euro for three months, and slightly long the U.S. dollar. One of the paradoxes is, if the world is worse than people expect, the U.S. dollar will outperform."
