There has been a lot of comment in the press about the "extraordinary" stability of the Euro throughout the simmering Greece debacle. To my mind this is not surprising at all. Traders and hedge funds are simply flat the currency until they know which way to jump. No-one of size is putting on a bet. They've been burnt before by overnight and weekend announcements, and have finally realised that when dealing with politicians rational, logical economics-based outcomes are irrelevant. Once the problem is resolved one way or the other (bailout or Grexit) then you'll see the currency really move.
