tippet, I am a bit familiar with the German pension system. It is much more human than the US system. In comparison the US pension system is run by a bunch of barbarians who care less about the elderly, never mind that they themselves receive fat salaries.

WS is notorious of being anti - human on benefits and perks to others (but to themselves excluded) and as such I assume they will hammer the Euro when ever possible.

Any company that fired people or plundered their pension funds "from excesses" got a substantial mark up in the stock price
