Well, it rounds to the same number. But if you really care about an arbitrary line being crossed, then just know that as of 21:31 UTC, the Euro is still slightly higher than the dollar at 1.0039618 and it has not dipped at or below 1.00 y

Sure, but I'm skeptical of all the claims made here given the lack of clarity in the example I point out above. This is not a peer-reviewed study, it's a "survey" performed by a company with very little information given
