In the currency market, the dollar was sharply lower against the euro. Late Tuesday, the euro was trading at $1.2707 vs. $1.2452 on Monday. All eyes were turned toward the Federal Reserve, which began meeting yesterday and will issue its interest rate pronouncement around 2:15 this afternoon, but the preliminary action in equities yesterday (Dow up almost 900) clearly indicated an expectation for a major cut.

With an estimated $4 trillion daily, forex trading dwarfs other markets in terms of volume. And stock market chaos is driving more investors to the currency markets. Frank Hemsley says forex trends are prone to overshoot. That means the British pound could fall much further against the US dollar in the coming months. It may be a bold call, but Frank says pound-dollar parity by the end of the year is a real possibility.

Can you talk a currency into gaining value? It seems Fed Chief Ben Bernanke and European Central (ECB) President Trichet think so. They’ve been telling anyone who will listen how serious they are about fighting the inflation monster that would cheapen their currencies.
