US dollars: buy euros with them or not?

Since most programs pay in US dollars and the dollar keeps dropping in value, do you transfer your dollars to another currency or do you keep dollars and wait for better times before changing them to euros?
Will the dollar ever increase again?

 

I don't think so...we may see an upward blip every now and then, but I feel dollar's long term trend is going to be down from now on.

 

I don't think the dollar will increase again, but since I'm in the US I usually just keep my money in $US dollars. It's convenient for me, and its decrease really isn't too drastic.

If I had more money or lived abroad I'd definitely try to keep my money in Euros, since I think they will continue to gain against the dollar

 

What makes you feel that?

 

USD has been decreasing against most major currencies for some time now...especially GBR and EUR.

Increasing trade and budget deficits of US.

Slower economic growth of US compared to other major economies (European and Asian.)

 

has to agree with this, INR increased about 20% in the last 6-8 months, that's a huge increase against the $,
but then this is effecting the exports, so RBI is trying to get the exchange rate higher, but then i feel $ is going to fall down futher!

 

I don't like saving money , I expect to buy my house in three years after that I'll stop saving.
It is better to spend and invest the money.And imo us dollar will go down in the future.They have to get out of Iraq , now it costs them more and it also costs more for Iraq people.

 

Euros decrease to

Damm dolar decreasing is not good i wasted a lot of money but oh well

 

Buy € now don't keep any $

 

Well I would buy € now because $ is going down and down in India.

 

Buy gold and farmland, that's what some of the "peak oil" people say.

 

gold is always solid... commodities are a good idea and go along with farmland. i'm looking into some commodity ETFs myself
