Currency rates (added every week or two).

Just wondering why this topic isn't stickied?

Maybe also have the first post amended to include the following link as well?

AUD Exchange Rate

That way it doesn't have to be continually updated and people can just click on the link to see what the current exchange rate is.

Anyways, just a thought.

And that thought makes fair sense to me, but I'd also like to add...

$1.00USD = $1.102AUD

I called it!

Yeah it hit it momentarily and then dropped back down again... and yes you did call it Hursty!

The good thing is that the link that I attached to the Xe.com site self updates with live market feeds, so it's always relevant.

AUD is slipping badly at the moment - down to $1.06USD

Dropped 4c in the past 4 days!

I liked the currency better when Osama was still alive

The suggestion is that Osama's death will prompt a more rapid scaling back of military operations by America, which means less spending on their military budget... and if that were to happen, the American budget, and its economy, will be in better shape sooner (that speculation by investors is what is said to be strengthening the US$ in the last few days). Give it a week, and we'll see if the speculation dies down or is justified (by way of further announcements on their operations against Al Quaeda and Afghanistan).

We need someone like Cobra Commander who can't be killed to keep at it with US He doesnt cause much damage but he sure makes up for it in terror.
