Euro Rises to Record High Against Dollar November 30, 2003 7:14:00 PM ET TOKYO (Reuters) - The euro hit a record high against the dollar on Monday as the U.S. currency came under pressure because of the gaping U.S. current account gap and geopolitical risks. Euro-buying against the yen, which was hurt by worries about the Tokyo stock market after the nationalization of a regional Japanese bank at the weekend, also supported the single currency, traders said. The euro rose to around $1.2035 by 7:05 p.m. EST, its highest level since its launch in January 1999 and up nearly a half cent from late Friday levels. It also rose more than half a yen to its highest level in more than two months against the Japanese currency.
