Market sentiment surrounding Greece continues to improve on reports that an agreement on private sector involvement has been reached. Prime Minister Papademos will meet today with coalition parties about supporting further austerity demands by the Troika. The US dollar advanced the most against the Japanese Yen with the pair opening the morning session near the 77.00 level after Japan's current-account surplus slid to a 15-year low in 2011. The Aussie dollar and the New Zealand dollar continue to strengthen reaching six and five month highs against the US dollar. |
