General Commentary
Spain now the Big Concern, Dangerous Times
Last week’s currency trading review
The EUR/USD tested 1.2500 last week as the market concerns about Greece and Spain encouraged attempts lower. Strong support was seen at the big figure and we are now watching for signs of contagion from Greece into other peripheral EU countries. This week is cut short by bank holidays but we do have US Nonfarm Payrolls which as always will dominate trading into Friday.
EUR/USD was down -2.09% currently at 1.2513, after opening the week at 1.2774.
