Dollar Slides to Lows Versus Euro and Yen
TOKYO (Reuters) - The dollar sank to a record low against the euro and fell to its lowest level since March 2000 versus the yen on Thursday as traders played down the chances of joint market intervention by European and Japanese authorities.

Japan's top currency policy official, Hiroshi Watanabe, said on Wednesday that "conditions are in place" for Japan and Europe to act jointly to support the dollar and that other countries hurt by the falling currency could join in for any intervention.

"So it's hard to think that the ECB will jointly act with Japan, which has intervened the heaviest.

At 1:30 a.m. EST, the euro bought around $1.3365, up from $1.3345 in late New York trade and just off the fresh record high of $1.3375 hit earlier in the day.

1. Wait a second,
this is the same thread headline that I have seen for the last 7 or 8 days...

Skinner, is there a malfunction of sorts in the database that keeps on repeating this?

I will leave you to find the answer, while I pray to Jaysus to protect our benevolent leader to better guide us through the next 4MoreYearsOfHell

2. I think the last headline said the dollar fell
against the Euro and the UK pound.

I wish these headlines would come with date and time indicated so I would know if it is yet another drop in the dollar. (It usually is.)
