Original Article

London/Franfurt - The dollar surged to a two-year high against the pound and a six-month peak against the euro on Friday, as fears about spreading economic gloom triggered a sell-off in commodities. Against sterling, the US currency notched up its 11th consecutive day of gains ? its longest uninterrupted rise in more than 35 years ? as markets became increasingly convinced that the US was best-placed to weather the global downturn.

I don't think so... and I'm sure none of the EU content producers are going to lower their rates either.

Long may it continue!

Here's to the heady heights of 2000-2001 when I started.

I've been taking a pay cut every month for the past few years, time for some pay rises

Well......... i reckon the dollar will strengthen between now and the elections. It'll probably start to weaken again from around april/may next year.

Long term, the dollar can only go down so i wouldnt get too excited.
