    It took over 60 years in planning and implementation to get the Euro where it is today and it still is in a work in progress. Monetary union without a unified central government is a hard act to pull off. In the U.S., the lack of union has placed the US Dollar in jeopardy though we have had a successful currency union replacing the currencies of various states with the US dollar.

    Good luck everyone....

    PS: We are still in a range and range breaks can get messy.
    Full moon is on Sunday, but not just about the moon, it is also a very important Venus cycle day! So perhaps next Monday or next week might be a new beginning.

    Now today is Friday, we can pull out the obligatory Ur---- jokes. Here is a nice and family-friendly one:

    You've hit rock bottom: You just googled Ur----.

    You can always google for more colourful ones

    Hi Greg... As you probably heard... It is nothing so grandiose, as no doubt everyone sees the cracks in the Euro. It's mainly an alternative to swift that enables settlement without using US dollars, which of course currently helps prop the demand and value of the dollar. The motivation is not about currency values, but rather about independence, control and freedom from any dollar/swift threats. As reported, they have had meetings and it is already under development.
