US dollar touches a new euro low

The value of the dollar has been on a downward spiral
The US dollar tumbled to yet another new low against the euro, as
speculation mounted that US interest rates would be cut again next
week.

The euro hit $1.4394 by late trade in New York, breaking the record
set last Friday, when one euro bought $1.4319.

And the pound hit a three-month high against the dollar at 2.0574.

A slew of weak data - including a drop-off in durable goods sales and
plummeting demand for new homes - has underlined woes in the US
economy.

It is more a problem for the Euro than the dollar.

I don't think either currency cares too much.

If you have plonked perhaps you could plonk his alter
ego irwell that he uses to repost his rubbish.

Well, I haven't plonked either of them. They haven't ****ed me off
enough.

I think you are right, the Canadians are having mixed feelings
about their dollar being worth more.

Things here in California are creeping up in price, we are off
to Paris this Monday, dreading the sticker shock when we
order our first meals.

Hi,

well there's lots of new demand for homes in the San Diego area now....

but really with the exchange rate the way it is the US is a bargain for
european travelers.

I think if I was going to recommend a place in the US to visit it would
be... TEXAS.

has everything but snow skiing (and if god had meant for texans to ski
he would have given them colorado too).

....I heard a lot of normal Americans couldnt afford to pay for their
homes anymore.
Perhaps I'll buy 1 (or 2) while I'm there ;-)

Hi,

what happened was a lot of people bought a lot more house than they
could afford with loans based on amoung other things the prime rate...
the prime rate doubles and their note doubles too... and they couldn't
pay them...

those that did fixed rate loans are fine.

and those buying NOW are getting good deals.
