The fear surrounding a Greek crisis and Eurozone rupture is deflating quickly, yet the Euro continues to lose ground. Lingering fear is a factor in the retreat, but a weak showing from the currency through one of its 'best outcomes' offers a skewed outlook for one of the majors. Meanwhile, the more systemic influence this relief may offer the broader financial markets is feeding a short-term speculative drive that has become common place in 2015.
