OTOH..... "Dollar Slides on Speculation Fed Will Cut Rates, ECB to Raise By Agnes Lovasz and Ron Harui Jan. 2 (Bloomberg) -- The dollar declined to its weakest in three weeks against the euro on speculation the Federal Reserve will reduce interest rates this year while European Central Bank policy makers increase their benchmark. The dollar slid against all 16 of the most actively traded currencies before a report this week that may show manufacturing growth stagnated in the world's largest economy. The Fed has held borrowing costs steady since June after a two-year campaign of raising them. ECB council member Erkki Liikanen suggested in an interview broadcast today that rates will rise in Europe. ``We've still got an ECB that's talking in incredibly hawkish terms,'' Simon Derrick, chief currency strategist at the Bank of New York, said in London. The comments contrast with the trend for U.S. rates, which is weakening the dollar, he said. The currency fell to $1.3272 versus the euro by 11:49 a.m. in London, from $1.3201 in New York late yesterday, its biggest daily drop since Dec. 19. It earlier touched $1.3290, the weakest since Dec. 12. The U.S. currency fell to 118.83 yen from 119.05."
