In a speech given in New Delhi March 25, 2011, the chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffet predicted the decline of the U.S. dollar.

The billionaire investor warned investors to avoid “long-term fixed-dollar investments” such as 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds. Buffett worries that the $2.3 trillion in new money the US government has pumped into the economy, when combined with interest rates so low they’re practically giving money away, are combining to dilute the value of the dollar.
