Goldsnow, the Euro is a bit of an enigma to me.

Re: Germans: I've had a good deal of correspondence with people in Germany lately, and as best as I can tell, sentiment is very ANTI-euro. The feeling is Germany gave up its DM for who knows what. So Kohl--feeling his party may be in trouble--has to ensure that the Euro is viewed as stable as possible.

Re: France: would like to step in as a counterbalance to the U.S. everwhere. In the Middle East, militarily, etc. They probably see gold and a Euro reserve currency with france playing a Key role is a nice way to screw the Americans.

Re: Duisenberg's statement (and maybe the Dutch), baffling. Why shouldn't the euro compete with the $ as a reserve currency? Does this sentiment have anything to do with Dutch gold sales?
