If you want one example why the dollar is so weak, look no further than housing. Home prices in Britain continue to soar despite many predictions the market would cool, so house price inflation is one big reason. The Bank of England is expected to raise rates once again. The opposite is true in the United States. A weak housing market may mean the Federal Reserve’s next move is cut in rates. So big investors are moving their money where they can get higher returns.

Since now that we are seeing this big disparity between UK economies with those private busts. And US economies were supposed to be fostering that we are seeing this play-out from the currency markets.

That is the why, but now what’s the effect? Well, if you live in Europe, this is the cheapest time in nearly 15 years that head to the USA. Virgin Atlantic says its Easter’s bookings to the USA were up 15% over last year. And since the dollar hitting 2 to 1 should sell even more tickets, now that people have become more aware of the bargain. But of course it’s now even more expensive for Americans to leave home.

We have been out too very many times in most people’s life time. So, there will be people taking advantage of that. And by contrast, there, there is absolutely no doubt that this kind of exchange rate US terms fights London pretty help prohibit the expense.

The pain is reverse for companies. American firms have found it cheaper to sell the goods overseas. Coca Cola on Tuesday credited favorable currency impact as one reason that it sold a 24% jump in the value of sales in Europe and Asia in the first quarter, but European companies have spent the last few years finding ways to counter this junk pound and euro as they try to sell goods in the US. Either way analysts say companies plan for currency moves, so stock markets part impacted as much as people travel plans.
