Currency Fluctuations - An international investment's total return is
based on two factors - the investment's return in local currency plus
currency fluctuations. For example, suppose you purchase a British
stock whose price increases 10% in one year in terms of British
pounds. If, during that same year, the British pound increases in
value by 5% compared to the U.S. dollar, your total return would be
15% - 10% from the investment's return plus 5% from currency
fluctuations. However, if the British pound decreased in value by 5%,
your total return would be 5%.

Dollars - Pounds - Euros - The current account deficit and budget deficits in the United States are out of control and most economists are very skeptical of the long-term health of the US economy. That is the major reason why dollar is falling. As the growth opportunities emerge in Brazil, Russia, India, and China (BRIC), investors are less interested in the United States. As a short-term solution to what is a long-term problem, the Bush administration is letting the dollar fall so that some American manufacturers can export American goods overseas. However, this is making life difficult for European exporters who are being priced out not only in Asia but United States as well. So expect them to react soon.
