After de Gaulle fell in Paris and Kiesinger rejected mark upgrades, over 4 billion dollars rushed into West Germany. Speculators bought marks hoping for gains as the currency rose. Kiesinger’s stance limited the rush. 600 million in foreign currency left the first day, much flowing into eurodollars earning about 10 percent. The raid harmed smaller European nations, and the mark’s fate hinges on September elections. The dollar strengthened, while the franc and pound were hurt. Exporters face risk from valuation shifts and devaluation.
