How does one invest in Euros?
Sorry - I'm not much of an investor - but it seems like it might be a wise thing to do...

2. It is kink of late in the day to be chasing Euros
But you can buy mutual funds that invest in Eurozone stocks. Gives you some of the benefit and you actually own something. MY wife has some money in a Fidelity fund that has done better than the S&P. Not that that's saying a great deal.

3. By investing in Europe
Look for companies that profit from the weakness of the dollar.

Also, any type of investment you can use to invest in dollars, is most likely mirrored with a type of investment in Europe/euros.

Scott Burns had some specifics on this in his column recently, so I'd search his website if I were you.

Oh here: http://www.uexpress.com/scottburns/ I found the very column I was recommending.
