- Bad if you own C$. I'm Canadian and have some of them. They (market
- experts - whatever that may be) claim that the C$ is going down to possibly
- US$0.70. Again not good if you own. But if you want to buy, just wait
- til it goes really low (as expected). In the longer term however, IMHO,
- I believe the C$ is a solid currency. It is doing very well relative to
- other national currencies. It is losing some ground to the US$ however.
-
- I would suggest that if you need the money in the near future, sell now.
- If you don't and you have more money, wait until it drops and buy more.

- my C$0.02 worth.
