Currency Trends in 2004-2008
6 January 2009 - The euro seriously rose in December, giving some room to eurozone importers while the British pound dramatically fell, therefore depressing UK's clothing import market.

China's renminbi no more rose since last June in addition while the Vietnamese dong seriously fell.
