Subject: Value of the dollar

I've been watching foreign exchange rates during the current crisis,
and I'm confused because the dollar keeps getting stronger.  Can
somebody explain this to me?  I'd think that investors would be
running away from dollars, not into them.

I'm not an economist.  What's going on here?
