I have a bunch of stock in an Australian company, so even though I'm losing, I'm winning.

Depends. If that company has majority of its income from US dollars based export, then it will be screwed and stock price will fall or is falling, then double wammy...

Considering I got it a few years ago at about 20 and it's at about 70 now I can stand a drop. It's a global company, so I'm sure less than 1/2 it's sales are in North America. It's my buy and hold fundamentals poster boy.

Hi Rob, looks like the Aussie is worth more than The CAD to the 3rd decimal point
Still trailing the US$

You are correct Des.....

Looks like I need to postpone my trip!

It's actually the first time in almost 10 years it's been above the Canadian..

As long as the SGD stays below, I'm happy. All the watches in Indonesia here are calculated with SGD currency convert. Ugh.

Few years back the SGD was stronger than The Aussie, today it's reversed @1.28
The Indonesians love the SGD, especially the resorts in Bintan

Don't know tbh... But I do have 5 XE.com browser tabs open, each with the price of a watch on the for sale section I want in USD entered in the converter, and every few hours I refresh it to see if its gotten even cheaper. Milgauss GV ~ under 5.5k AUD
