Grécia pondera sair do Euro
Un porte-parole du président de l'Eurogroupe Jean-Claude Juncker a démenti l'existence d'une telle réunion alors que le ministère des Finances français a dit ne pouvoir ni confirmer ni infirmer la tenue d'une réunion.
"Le gouvernement (grec) a mis sur la table la possibilité d'une sortie de la zone euro et la réintroduction de sa propre devise", rapporte le Spiegel.
La possibilité d'une sortie de la Grèce de la zone euro n'a pas été discutée au niveau de l'Union européenne, a précisé un porte-parole de la chancelière allemande Angela Merkel. “Ce n'est pas sur la table et, pour le gouvernement allemand, ça n'a jamais été sur la table. La question n'est pas à l'agenda européen", a-t-il précisé.
Vers 18h15, l'euro s'échangeait sous le seuil de 1,45 dollar, cédant plus de 0,7% à 1,4438 dollar.

Greece urged to give up euro
From The Sunday Times
May 30, 2010
THE Greek government has been advised by British economists to leave the euro and default on its €300 billion (£255 billion) debt to save its economy.
The Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR), a London-based consultancy, has warned Greek ministers they will be unable to escape their debt trap without devaluing their own currency to boost exports. The only way this can happen is if Greece returns to its own currency.
Greek politicians have played down the prospect of abandoning the euro, which could lead to the break-up of the single currency.
Speaking from Athens yesterday, Doug McWilliams, chief executive of the CEBR, said: “Leaving the euro would mean the new currency will fall by a minimum of 15%. But as the national debt is valued in euros, this would raise the debt from its current level of 120% of GDP to 140% overnight.
“So part of the package of leaving the euro must be to convert the debt into the new domestic currency unilaterally.”
Greece’s departure from the euro would prove disastrous for German and French banks, to which it owes billions of euros.
McWilliams called the move “virtually inevitable” and said other members may follow.
“The only question is the timing,” he said. “The other issue is the extent of contagion. Spain would probably be forced to follow suit, and probably Portugal and Italy, though the Italian debt position is less serious.
“Could this be the last weekend of the single currency? Quite possibly, yes.”

Com um bocado de sorte os finlandeses obrigam-nos a perder menos tempo do que a Grécia perdeu.

Euro dips as media reports on Greece's euro zone future
May 6 (Reuters) - The euro briefly extended losses against the dollar on Friday, with traders citing a German media report that Greece had raised the possibility of leaving the euro zone.
The euro hit a session low of $1.4454 EUR= and was last at $1.4459, down about 0.4 percent on the day. It was down about 2.3 percent this week, its worst week since January.
"Those Greece headlines definitely had an impact on the euro," said Geoffrey Yu, senior currency strategist at UBS in Stamford, Connecticut. For more, please see [ID:nBAT006205]
"Greece leaving the euro zone could cause a cascade of problems, especially for the banking sector and particularly if the European Union allow Greece unilaterally default on its loans. That would need to happen if Greece wants to leave the euro zone," he added.

Grécia pondera sair do Euro
Decidi abrir um novo tópico, pois parece-me mais apropriado agregar aqui a informação sobre este assunto do que no tópico do EUR/USD onde já se fala de muitas outras coisas...
DER SPIEGEL: GRÉCIA PONDERA SAIR DO EURO
Económico
06/05/11 17:05
Publicação alemã dá conta de uma reunião de emergência, hoje, entre os ministros das Finanças europeus para discutir a crise na Grécia.
O Der Spiegel avançou no seu ‘site' que o governo grego está a ponderar abandonar a zona euro e ressuscitar a sua moeda antiga, o dracma.
Segundo a mesma publicação alemã, os ministros das Finanças europeus vão reunir-se ainda hoje, no Luxemburgo, num encontro extraordinário para discutir a situação grega, nomeadamente a possibilidade de se avançar para uma reestruturação da dívida que tem sido publicamente defendida pelo governo de Angela Merkel.
A existência dessa reunião foi desmentida por um porta-voz de Jean-Claude Juncker, presidente do Eurogrupo, em declarações citadas pela Reuters.
O Der Spiegel escreve ainda que Berlim se opõe fortemente à eventual saída da Grécia da zona euro. Já a agência Reuters cita fonte do governo alemão a dizer que não há planos para Atenas sair do euro
O euro seguia a perder 0,8% para negociar nos 1,44 dólares depois de ontem ter depreciado 2% para a divisa norte-americana.
