I'm still amazed that everyone cries about Greece and no one ever looks at California, NY, Illinois, ... The PIGS are a joke compared to the size of the US states. But well, no rating agency would ever downgrade the AAA rating of the US I guess because this would be a real shake...

And I'd like to add that the US is NOT interested in a strong Dollar, no matter how they talk about it. ;)

I can't imagine that this is only due to Greece. I guess the markets start to look at Spain which is much larger than Greece. Greece is about 3% of EU GDP if I've read that correctly but Spain is 8 times larger.

Anyway for me this looks like the typical markets exaggeration and a good dip buying opportunity where you can scale in down to 1.38/39 for targets of 1.45-50.

rkkashmir, I'm not so sure about that. Everyone seems to hate the GBP and is short there. That could become a nice short squeeze in the GBP the next weeks... I see targets of 1.67 and above.

ROFL. What a stupid rumor! Of course Angela Merkel will NOT resign. I'm amazed that the markets buy such a stupid thing...

PippedOff could you please explain why the USD should be less trash than the Euro for instance? For me the only thing that keeps the Dollar still alive is its reserve currency status which fades away already over the years... I mean the USD is lately the purest finest most worthless trash. :D

It's only a matter of time when the US treasuries bubble pop up. And it will pop. If it pops you won't want any long Dollar positions. ;) But ok, might take some time till that happens...

Quite interesting...

Stocks drop a bit,
Yen gains a lot,
Euro gains as well,
USD suffers,
Oil drops,
CAD gains,
Sugar drops. :D
