Armand, thanks for the insightful replies! I roughly think what you said there, but I don't have enough factual data like you to support it.
Anyway, the Pound is experienced quite an inflation, that's true, but I think that the British economy, no matter how many problems it has will survive what Eurozone one cannot. The UK has a very strong real estate market, as well as a pretty good stock exchange. Please don't ask me to elaborate more on this, because, again, I have no factual data, but I'm positive that's right. On the other hand, no matter what the British experienced throughout history, they have miracleously gotten out of it alive (Spanish Armada, WW 2 some of them), so that's why I'm pretty confident in the English.
Euro is, in my opinion, a failure at it's core, at least to an extent. How can one currency be the same for so many diverse countries? It may become very vulnerable to fall of a single member of the Eurozone...
Another thing - Germany is the country with undoubtebly the strongest economy in Europe. And yet they whine pretty big time about the first phase of crisis that's striking Europe - Greece. By the time the economic turmoil reaches Spain (it already has, but I'm speaking of the point where they need a huge bailout just like Argentina/Iceland/Greece), they'll already ragequit the Eurozone, and probably form another Mark with the Austrians, Luxemburgh, and maybe a few more still healthy economies...
Also, there's a huge number of speculators worldwide, speaking of doom of Euro and European economy. That many speculators don't just come out of nowhere... It seems that the fall of Euro is already decided. I'm only interested in what will be the concequences...
The Chinese Yuan is a story for itself. That currency is as manipulated as it can get! Anyway, China has something no other country has - an almost unlimited pool of cheap labour force. It will take a while before China starts slowing down, although it's very inevitable, given their rise is exagerated and forced by their government policies.
