Euro forecasts weaken on Draghi's interest rate cuts

Foreign exchange analysts are lowering their forecasts for the 17-nation currency at the rapidest rate this year as ECB President Mario Draghi's borrowing rate reduction abandon one of the Euro pillars of maintenance. Investors are dumping assets denominated in euro, as EU officials fail to stop concern that Spain and Italy will capitulate to a debt crisis.  Ken Dickson, Standard Life Investments currency investment director expects additional ECB monetary easing next year. Moreover, he predicts Europe's weakness may push the common currency to around $1.20 during the first 6 months of 2012.
