Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

THE SKY SHE IS FALLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In foreign exchange, the euro hit lows across the board as the market reacted negatively to the opaque Greek rescue efforts. At 1640 GMT, the euro fell 0.7% to $1.3638. Against the U.K. pound, the euro dropped to GBP 0.8712. The U.K. pound was up 0.4% at $1.5654.

Dippy whoop.

Last year the euro was at 1.27847 USD (averaged for the month.)

Massive, massive losses.

We're in a Euro crisis, clearly.

This spells the end.

And EU exports get cheaper. I suspect judo finance is in operation. Quartal v 4 year results (on average).
