EUR/USD Eyes Further Weakness

EUR/USD Eyes Further Weakness

On the upside, resistance comes in at 1.2350 level with a cut through here opening the door for more upside towards the 1.2400 level.

As mentioned earlier this week there are couple of potential candidates for my fund. My favorite one is Dominion Resources as it is a high quality utility company at a cheap price. At the moment it is priced at $63.94 USD which means in the last 3 month there is a decrease of -15.05% and -25.04% from its 52 week high. […]
