Re: Runaway globalisation and the dollar (4.00 / 2)

I've been in France since 1990 and the lowest I've seen the dollar is where it is now, which would be 4.93 french francs. That was in 1992.

Re: Runaway globalisation and the dollar (none / 1)

It was lower when I was a little kid, around 4 francs to a dollar if I'm not mistaken?

Assuming quite a lot of things, this would be like 1.6 euros to the dollar.

Re: Runaway globalisation and the dollar (none / 1)

Around 1990 the dollar went from almost 200 pesetas to the dollar to about 100 (or the other way around). That would be €0.60 and €1.20.
