A diverse parliament of Greece will not be able to reach a compromise in the formation of the government.
Asian and European trading sessions:
Euro: The EUR/USD pair traded lower at the Asian and European sessions. It was on the way to test the lows of the previous day. All these were on the background of the background of news which came from Athens revealing the fact that the new government of Greece could not be still formed. Also after the French President Nicolas Sarkozy, a partner and supporter of German Chancellor Angela Merkel was defeated at the election by the socialist Francois Hollande the rumors came to the markets about the possible revising of economy measures in Europe. These rumors increased investors’ concerns about the worsening of the situation with the debt crisis in Euro zone. What was done is a very diverse parliament was formed, which will not be able to reach a compromise in the formation of the government. The only positive news that prevented currency from falling to new lows today was a report on industrial production in Germany, the results of which recorded a growth in March and were significantly higher than forecasts. The EUR/USD couple showed a low of the European session around $1.2982 level.
British Pound: The GBP / USD couple traded down in the Asian and declined to $1.6154 area. The currency came under pressure mostly for same reasons as the Euro. The GBP / USD pair accelerated its move at the beginning of the European session falling to the lows of $1.6124.
