hits record against euro on fear of Zimbabwean-style
response to bank crisis (JWR Adds: The current "strength"

is
all
relative. All the paper currencies are on the same path, but some are just moving

out of paper currencies and any investments denominated in those currencies.
This is the age of tangible investments!)
