Euro Manipulation – I Feel So Dirty
The euro made a dramatic reversal that seemed to make very little sense Monday, and so I feel kind of dirty. The euro was down dramatically 1.9% versus the U.S. dollar in overnight overseas trading on obvious Greece concerns. Yet, by afternoon trading in the U.S., it was sharply higher versus the dollar. It was unnatural and had a lot to do with the actions of the European central banks plus a strangely timed news bit about Puerto Rico. I feel like my money has been touched inappropriately.
