Dollar Rallies To 6-Year Highs
The dollar hit 6-year highs against the mark and French franc Monday after remarks by France’s president Jacques Chirac intensified pessimism about Europe’s planned single currency.
The momentum of the dollar’s advance, particularly against the mark, aroused more demand for dollars as the day progressed and exerted further pressure on the German currency, which has fallen to a series of multiyear lows against the dollar, pound and yen in recent weeks.
