      It's not all good, the lower dollar was an advantage when competing against U.S. suppliers.

      This could see the manufacturing industry take a bit of a hit.

        No, it's US Dollar that's falling. Pound Sterling seems to be closer stuck to US Dollar, while Canadian Dollar seems to be closer to Euro.

        Our Tolar keeps consistent rate to Euro (with inflation of course), while US Dollar has fallen even to our currency.



        USD-CAD



        USD-EUR



        USD-GBP



        USD-SIT

        All 120-day charts from X-Rates.com

        Some suggest that Hussein's switching of his Oil trades and reserve currency to Euro (he did it when Euro was 87 cents, now it's 112) and keeping entire OPEC from doing so (Venezuela and Iran are considering doing this) was one of reasons for US' Attack on Iraq.

            Yep and Norht Korea switched too (Axis of Evil).

            Imagine Kim Jong Il or Saddam in "switch to Mac" style Euro add.

            We used to have like Dollars and it was like imperialism and dependance and falling reserves and profits and stuff. Now we switched and it's like better.
