Good discussion of current macro environment

The Euro is melting this morning falling to a 10 year low. The US dollar and bonds continue to see the influx of fleeing capital from the Eurozone.

John Mauldin, president of Millennium Wave Advisors LLC; Michael Woolfolk, managing director at Bank of New York Mellon Corp.; Steven Brown, vice president and portfolio manager at American Century Investments; and Domenico Lombardi, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, talk about the outlook for President Barack Obama’s speech to Congress about the economy and jobs, prescriptions to restore growth, and the risk of contagion from the European debt crisis. They speak with Pimm Fox on Bloomberg Television’s “Taking Stock.” Watch the clip here.
