Hedge the dollar with ETFs

Not now, not soon, but someday I imagine the US dollar may lose value.

How to hedge?

1. Currency ETFs
FXF : CurrencyShares Swiss Franc Trust
FXC : CurrencyShares Canadian Dollar Trust
FXS : CurrencyShares Swedish Krona Trust

2. Dollar Futures ETFs
UDN : PowerShares DB US Dollar Index Bearish

3. Broad Commodity Index ETFs
DBC : PowerShares DB Commodity Index
DJP : iPath DJ-UBS Commodity Index
GSG : iShares S&P GSCI Commodity Index
