Now Europe's Freaking Out About The Weakening Dollar - by Vince Veneziani

With the U.S. dollar at a 14-month low against the Euro, the pressure is on for the European Union to join Brazil and certain Asian economies in helping prop up the dollar. What you're seeing now is a sharp reversal from the tone from just a few weeks ago, when central bankers were stoking rumors about a new reserve currency to replace the dollar. The European Central Bank is considering taking steps to ensure that the dollar doesn't drop any further against the Pound and the Euro. Investors are concerned that the Euro-Zone finance ministers convening at a regular meeting later in the day in Luxembourg could fire warning shots over EUR strength. This could ramp up pressure on the European Central Bank (ECB) to consider steps to curb any further rises in the currency, analysts said.
