What's happening in the market....

September 22nd to date:

It's still all about Europe...

With Fall well and truly here, the weather is starting to get a definite autumnal feel, however as the rest of the world cools down, it looks like the EU is heating up. The markets continue to be dominated by the ongoing crisis in Europe and any buying or selling comes on the back of good or bad news from the euro zone.

The US Dollar is benefiting across the board; good news in Europe leads to investors purchasing riskier currencies and selling the US Dollar with bad news pushing investors straight back to the safer US Dollar. With limited good news, the Dollar rallies ahead.

This risk on/risk off appetite is also the sentiment driving the Canadian Dollar. The Canadian economy is so closely linked to the prospects of their neighbor, any improvements in economic conditions stateside will typically filter through to Canada's statistics.

This week all eyes are on Sundays up and coming EU proposal being driven by German Chancellor Merkel and French President Sarkozy. A strong proposal will help the Euro and Sterling, a weak proposal will only add to the woes in the Euro zone and investors will look to reduce risk, hence stay with the US Dollar.

E2 Visa Reform

Many Brits live in the US on E2 Treaty Investor Visas.

There is a group who are lobbying Washington to ask for the chance to be able to apply for Green Cards – this is not possible at the moment, even though these visa holders bring in foreign investment and create jobs.

The White House has a Petition website, and if you can get 5,000 signatures within 30 days about an issue, it will be considered by their staff.

The E2 Visa Reform Group have set up such a Petition and are asking for your help to get to the required number of signatures.

Please go to: http://wh.gov/4TP

The process can be a little fiddly, but it is worth persevering. You do need to create an Account and then go back in to sign – sometimes changing browsers can help at this stage.

This group have a website at: www.E2VisaReform.org

They would welcome hearing from any other E2 Treaty Investor Visa holders out there.

What is being said about us...

Lloyd Rawn

"Recently we had the opportunity to help a family returning to the US after living and working in France for many years. After successfully finding them the home of their dreams in Naples, FL. we suggested that they contact Moneycorp.

Having had several conversations with the clients about the world's turbulent economic times we believed that Moneycorp would be the answer for moving our clients' funds more predictably and safely to the US.

Our clients, being financially savvy international real estate developers, were sceptical but still gave Moneycorp a call.

Our clients' became believers. Within days of closing on the sale of their home in France the clients Euros were converted to US dollars and deposited into their US account in plenty of time for the closing of their multi-million dollar Naples home.

Moneycorp representatives in Europe worked with our clients every step of the way and the Moneycorp representative in Florida kept us appraised of the process every step of the way.

Today our clients are living in their new Naples home and we have very satisfied clients, who think we are the smartest Realtors in town"
