if you look across the major currencies, the developed markets, we would say that the currencies of central banks who are more active, such as bank of canadawe saw a couple rate hikes last year or the european central bank who has taken gradual steps to announce further reductions in quantitative easing should have seen and should continue to see currencies improve depending on the activity of those central banks and movement or evolution of monetary policy in a less accommodative direction, that's lifting those currencies we saw it with the u.s. dollar when the fed was tapering throughout 2014 and then the rate hike in 2015. >> does the global currency market have a lot to worry about with the rise of bitcoin and more people embracing this virtual currency >> i would say at this point no. not much to worry about at this point. we tend to focus more on the traditional currencies and the economic factors and the monetary policy factors, those underlying trends tend to influence the traditional. >> really quickly, what's your hottest trade in 2018? >> in 2018, we see a mix of performance for the u.s. dollar versus foreign currencies. in the
