Stock-Markets / Financial Markets 2011 Oct 10, 2011 - 02:52 AM GMTThe weekend's pledge from Germany's Merkel and France's Sarkozy has been taken as a sign that the Eurozone finally has the will and the unity to get to tackle the crisis. There is increasing belief in the optimistic view that Greek default will be contained by full support of European banks. This comes as French and Belgian authorities guarantee 90bn euros of Dexia debt.
The euro is leading markets higher with the EUR/USD up 0.75% and the EUR/GBP up 0.55%.
Commodity currencies are also enjoying a rebound with the AUD/USD up 0.64%, the NZD/USD up 0.50% and the USD/CAD down 0.55%. Gold is up around 1.00%.
Stock market futures are rallying after suffering a post payrolls sell off which saw the main US markets close down around 0.75%.
