The euro is riding high against both the dollar and the British Pound. The reasons so far include the ECB (European Central Bank's) reluctance to cut interest rates as they are concentrating on squeezing inflation. However, it is only a matter of time before they too will have to start cutting as the growth rate is slowing. Therefore investors will continue to invest in the euro until the ECB signal otherwise.
In the UK, as in US, rate cutting is underway - BOE (Bank of England) is expected to cut 2 to 3 times this year as the rate of growth has slowed alarmingly.
Another reason why the pound is suffering in the currency market is put down to "sentiment" - ie the feeling that since last summer and, in particular, the saga of Northern Rock, the UK's reputation as a major financial centre has suffered a major setback. No one is emerging with any credit in the handling of this matter and blaming the "credit crunch" won't abolve them of their responsibilities.
Even if you don't understand charts anyone looking at the euro/pound chart will see that there is no immediate end to the rise of the euro. There are huge upbars on all timeframes: daily, weekly and monthly. One target being mentioned is at least 0.83 - at this rate we could even reach parity!
The consequences are very serious, especially if you are considering purchasing in euroland, it may be prudent to wait or at least fix a rate. However, if you have euro assets which you have held for some time now may be a good time to consider selling.
Hope the above helps. |

The pound is still worth more than the euro.
1 British pound = 1.33910035 Euros |

Projections for a weak and problematical economy in 2008. They say - the pundits - that it will be likely to get worse before it gets better. |

The main reason is the huge amount of debt in this country, both personal and Governmental, and the expectation of a serious downturn in the economy. Another significant reason is the expectation of lower interest rates. There is also a strong expectation of rising inflation, putting the BOE in a quandary. |

The euro is a financial instrument used by nearly the entire EU. The UK Pound is hurting because the Euro is doing so well against the dollar. |

The issue is inter-institutional lending rates and availability.
