Analysis: Unhedged debt stock could supercharge euro rise
Euro zone investors who have snapped up over a trillion euros worth of foreign debt without protecting the foreign exchange risk are rethinking that vulnerability because of the currency's hefty rally this year. The move entails buying euros to hedge, which turbo charges the rally even further - creating a headwind for the European Central Bank. The ECB is widely expected to start laying out its plans for scaling back monetary stimulus at next week's policy meeting, but a strong euro complicates this since it puts downward pressure on inflation which is already running below target.

Stronger currency shrinks euro zone trade surplus in August
Euro zone's trade surplus shrank in August as the stronger euro fuelled an import boom that was only partly offset by a rise in exports, official estimates released on Monday showed. Although the euro has depreciated against the dollar from a 2017 peak in early September, it is still up more than 12 percent this year. Cheaper imports have complicated European Central Bank's plans to raise inflation in the euro zone.

Interview: Eurogroup head outlines pragmatic view on 'euro zone budget'
A euro zone budget of several hundred billion euros is an ambitious idea, the head of euro zone finance ministers said on Saturday, suggesting loans from the bailout fund and transfers from the existing European Union budget could be more feasible. "Creating a whole new budget, inside or outside the European Union budget, of many hundred billion, is courageous," Jeroen Dijsselbloem told Reuters on the sidelines of the International Monetary Fund's meetings in Washington. Euro zone governments are debating how to integrate further the 19 members of the 28-nation European Union that share the single currency to prevent a repeat of the sovereign debt crisis and reap greater benefits from the euro.
