Besides Europe being shocked by terrorist attacks in France, possibility that Greece could leave shared currency has the negative impact on euro. Greece will have to face with the snap parliamentary elections as only 168 lawmakers in the 300-seat chamber backed Prime Minister Antonio Samaras’s nominee for president, Stavros Dimas, short of the 180 votes required.
The elections could bring the leftwing Syriza party led by Alexis Tsipras to power and derail an international bailout. Syriza party is ahead of Samaras’s New Democracy movement in opinion polls.Except that, there are a lot of speculations that ECB could introduce further monetary stimulus as Eurozone CPI fell by 0.2%, showing that all so far done measures were not enough to stop deflation trend.
There will be no major data releases from Eurozone tomorrow so we can expect a steadier morning part of the session. In the US session JOLT Job Openings data will be released. Analysts are forecasting increase by 4.91 million.
Figures to watch:
