Default Monday is Euro Day.

So Monday will see the BIG chief telling Britain what the future holds for the £, ????????

There should be a fair bit of movement on monday, Tuesday on the exchange rate, I wonder what people just about to move to or from OZ will do? sit tight and hope? or cash in now?.
Dodgy one this.

Non event has little to do with the rubber dollar , has it has also gained on the Euro.
No way the UK will enter until after the next election the money markets know that , and the UK will again cut rates like Europe and America is doing , that will make the rubber dollar fly up again.

The dollar outstripped its currency rivals yesterday as it continued to strengthen against the greenback.


http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/...700343897.html

The dollar floated to its new three-year high of US66.64c, before closing at US66.35c, on a growing consensus that the chairman of the US Federal Reserve, Dr Alan Greenspan, will cut interest rates at his next meeting on monetary policy.

Expectations are mounting that central banks around the world are cutting rates, except the Reserve Bank of Australia.

Hope he does the pound will dive farther but it will be a good move, 2% Europe interest rates will do me, plus no money dealers to bugger up the trade with Europe.

they never did

don't think for one moment brown doesn't want to go into europe -he is a committed eurofile and a bilderberger.

http://www.bilderberg.org

these five tests are just random assessments not actually judged against anything. therefore open to (mis)interpretation

there is only one test that he is concerned with

'can get get a majority to vote for it'

everything else is fudge


cheers

Try reading a book called 'Them' by Jon Ronson who followed Bush and others to one of their meetings. ISBN 0 330 37546 6 It includes an interview with founder menber Lord Denis Healey who talks about people like Clinton and Thatcher at the meetings.

You won't believe in politics again after you read it. I don't.

There will be some severe stalling tactics used this week. The important date to look out for is Sept. 5th. I bet we'll be comitted by then. It's already pre-planned.

sorry for the ignorance on this one Steve, (please bear in mind I am in Oz and news travels slowly over to these parts!) - what is supposed to be happening on Sept. 5th?
