The Slovak crown inched weaker against the euro on Friday alongside bigger regional peers, following a speech by U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman...

...Ben 
Bernanke which boosted the dollar and pushed investors to unwind 
carry trades. 
    The crown traded 33.750 per euro  as of 1515 GMT, 
down from 33.680/700 before the Fed comments. The currency stood 
at 33.730 late on Thursday. 
    "The crown's should remain drifting in a 33.600-33.800 per 
euro range," one Bratislava-base dealer with a foreign bank 
said. 
    Dealers said the crown lacked a clear trend, adding it would 
react only to global and regional sentiment as there were no 
domestic movers in sight.
