Dollar, Gold and Oil "Price" Relationships

The relationship between the dollar (UUP) and both gold (GLD) and oil (USO) over the past two two years has been inversely related. See the following chart:

From the chart, one can observe that the peak in oil and gold corresponded to the low in the dollar in July 2008. Since then, the dollar has rallied and both oil and gold have decline. The key going forward from this point must be to track what happens to the dollar. We will definitely follow this relationship.
