JRI - noise, IMHO OTOH, I never understood those "weaker" or "strong" currencies policies. Seems to me like a bad rep selling discounts and not the product. "Weak" coz. ECB "not cutting fast enough?" . Gimme a break. Euro has recouped earlier losses on a par with repatriation from the US equities market. This was the case until end of Dec. Some is flowing back. And it is the Dollar which is getting stronger, and all the other currencies weaker. futuresource.com futuresource.com For what I read from the Dollar Index and the Euro futures: they are moving perfectly in opposite trends. Inflation is not more in control in Europe than in the States, we are in a global economy and Japan is faltering. Bad for everyone. I don't think the Euro is too strong, the mean value of the 11 last years is at about $1.2 to buy an Euro. And about growth, Europe usually follows the US cycle with a delay of 12-24 months. IMHO, ECB will cut rates, by the smallest possible amount, for political reasons. Euro currencies will only be available in notes on Jan 01, 2002 and this is the real test for me as I believe that the strenght of a global currency should be measured at the height of the piles of monies stocked in the basements. LOL. All that parallel economy which only uses cash and laundrettes. Blackmail of Arabic countries treading to trade USD for Euros. Seven months to go for the test. Meanwhile: noise, nobody knows.
