A Grexit was avoided for now and it appears that expectations of the parliament approving the legislation are high. Elsewhere it was stressed that there are ways to keep the banking system supported in the short-term. All of the above suggests that risk sentiment and the EUR are likely to remain stable in the very short-term.
