Trading Currency Made Easy With ETF’s
Don Dion from TheStreet.com reports that, “One investment made easier by the ETF boom is currency. CurrencyShares was first to market with the CurrencyShares Euro Trust (FXE), and it has added a number of additional products. Recently, the CurrencyShares Russian Ruble ETF (XRU) was introduced.”
“Earlier today, during the BRIC conference, Russia’s finance minister had positive things to say about the U.S. dollar, and the greenback went on to rally against currencies and commodities. The PowerShares DB U.S. Dollar Bullish Fund (UUP) will gain early, thanks to this move, though it may fade during U.S. trading,” Continues Don Dion.
“The anti-U.S. dollar trade has been successful during the stock market rally, and it is an extremely popular trade. The dollar may drop a bit further, but at this point, the risk-to-reward ratio is tilted in favor of the dollar bulls,” Reports Don Dion.
