Dollar twenty two fourteen today that after reaching a three year high on monday when it was going for one u. S. Dollar twenty two ninety seven and the euro has gained almost eighteen percent against the greenback since january twenty seven t. D. Analysts say that the European Central banks plans to end its Bond Buying Program behind the currency strengthen the euro is expected to remain strong in the near
term lets find out a little bit more about the why and lets cross over to our Financial Market correspondent daniel corp who is keeping an eye for us on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange hi danielle so tell us what do you think is driving the euro right now. Well i think there are two im a infectious behind of all of this and i can tell you also from the investors perspective this very strong euro also came as a little surprise for investors here after we really saw a rally here happening at the stock market at the beginning of this year well we are having a very strong european economy at the moment but the main reason behind this is speculation and rumors coming from the European Central bank just a few blocks away from where i am that we might be seeing already if this year and change of the Monetary Policy of the e. C. B. Right now we still have zero per cent Interest Rates here in the euro zone this is
most likely not going to change at least until Two Thousand And Nineteen but many investors are thinking that we could see a complete stop of the Bond Purchasing Program that was already. Down now from january to is from Sixty Billion Euros a month to just Thirty Billion euros a month this has really been giving the euro quite a boost here at the Stock Market Warning now a strong currency a solid currency represents as you mentioned also a solid economy but i know that theres always two sides to every coin whats the downside of a strong euro well even though investors have been asking for a long time that is Monetary Policy of the e. C. B. Is changing they are not really happy with the immediate effects because whatever we have a very strong euro we usually see also shares here at the Blue Chip Index stocks falling because Many Companies here do a lot of their money with export and with a strong euro those products on the other side of the world for example in the
united states get more expensive and then not anymore that attractive so thats why investors are actually for the moment not so happy with this quote in frankfurt thank you so much for this. I dont know where you spent the holidays the chances are that many of you didnt spend the season at home traveling is a huge trend in fact preliminary data from the u. N.

S. In the number two position with more than Eighty Million visitors last year
a deadly Terror Attack in august and the political crisis in catalonia dont appear to have dented spains overall tourist figures. Thats not the case for the u. S. Politics affected International Visitor numbers which dropped five percent early last year hulloa inauguration of donald trump things a boding well for countries in other regions europe continues to receive the highest number of International TouristsSix Hundred And Seventy One Million in Two Thousand And Seventeen asia and the pacific recorded Three Hundred Twenty Four MillionInternational Visitors and africa and The Middle East combined came in at One Hundred Thirty million visitors europe and africa had the highest growth rates of eight percent followed by asia pacific. With a six percent growth this is the highest annual growth rate in seven years the agency said this was mostly due to Global Economic upswing in that it expects
growth to continue twenty eighteen or more sustainable pace of around four percent tourism is one of the worlds leading export sectors so the growth is welcome news it could lead to more job creation in trouble and hospitality interest in asian countries. They go wider faster the A Three Eighty was supposed to be nothing less than a revolution of a Global Air Travel its model planes equipped with Cocktail Lounge and gym but the two Story Super Jumbo was a slow seller right from the start and now it could phase the end of production all together as most important Customer Emirates simply isnt ordering enough planes to keep the a three Eighty Program a life. What was hoped to be the companys biggest success is turning into a disappointing defeat with just over Three Hundred planes sold and few on order airbus says it will stop making the A Three Eighty super jumbo if it doesnt get more business from top client emirates which is now buying planes from boeing
airbus says that the dubai based airline is key for its business they are probably the only one who has the ability right now in the marketplace to take a minimum of six a year for a period of eight to ten years and then we can add some on top of that so quite honestly if we cant work out a deal with emirates i think there is no choice but to shut down the program but im hopeful that well work out a deal with emirates and others can add airplanes on top of that some hold bring mains apparently but the revolution will have to wait. While staying with the industry Turkish Airlines has reclaimed to the top spot over compared to the emirates because it carried more passengers in twenty seventeen thats according to newly released numbers a Sixty Nine Million passengers flew turkish last year thats a bump of nine percent from the year before. There were Sixty Six Million while
emirates counted Fifty Nine Million its an impressive rebound for turkish after fierce competition from local Scare Carriers and a tense political situation in turkey ive heard the allied in recent years.

S. Alone so it was really resonant that it touched
a nerve. We mentioned that she was from limerick in ireland lets listen to what people there had to say when they heard about her passing.

Really sort of almost a farewell in that night mark you have a Favorite Song from the cranberries that stands out to you as a highlight well i think was kind of Breakthrough Hit when it was first released it
didnt do very well the n. E. P. Went to the seventy four in the charts but when it was rereleased after that had gained a bit more radio play.
