The dollar strengthened into a high only beyond 1.3090 from the Euro on Wednesday, but was not able to maintain these gains and scale back to 1.3135 in New York on Wednesday. There was little change in ancient Europe on Thursday prior to a buck escape to 1.3150.

Fed Chairman Greenspan was optimistic but he had been more careful issued no warnings and than anticipated. Attention was paid by Greenspan and he opted to focus on the problems of their budget shortages. He cautioned that the shortages were called for spending cuts. The buck will unsettle by reviving unease. There'll nonetheless be warning ahead of this Friday US employment record that is significant. Markets are anticipating a report during Wednesday with rumours of a figure and this may promote a covering of any US dollar positions during the next 24 hours, however a lot of the effect should have been viewed.

There was speculation that that the GDP growth predictions would be downgraded by the ECB in this triggered the Euro after information that is unsatisfactory and its own Thursday report. The comments will probably be significant, although it is improbable that rates will reduce. The money supply and indies a tightening may be demanded and credit figures imply that policy is not overly tight, but that isn't being backed up from the expansion information. The ECB position will be significant whether there are indiions of concern over expansion, and also the Euro will weaken. Conversely, the Euro would be supported by a stance on inflation. The Euro-zone PMI indior for the services account was marginally weaker than anticipated at 53.0 from 53.4 in January. The ECB is very likely to keep a coverage, but is very likely to indie some inflation problems.
