The pressure on the single currency is accumulating on the increased market worries about Greece bankruptcy and the solid germane position from giving unwarranted financial support to Greece until now. The worries about spreading the debts problems in other countries in the euro area and downgrading their creditability are putting pressure on the single currency across the broad as the deficit to GDP ratio average is at 6% nearly right now, while it should be below 3% on Maastricht treaty of the Euro area with no joint certain rescue plan or European mechanism until for bailing these financial problems out to store confidence on the Euro zone financial stability outlook.

Last week, Moody's warned about the triple A crediting countries with the current slow economic recovery in Europe comparing with US and the debt which is still accumulating in other European countries like Spain and Portugal because of the credit crisis which pushed the governmental spending up and expanded the monetary conditions for spurring investment and growth which is still struggling in Europe suffering from the cost of these easing stimulating plans in their budget threating the market confidence and the recovery itself with market focusing on the consequences of the debt building in Europe and the ECB inability to take to take any tightening action keeping the interest rate at 1% for more than a year after the realized financial stability in US and its positive impact on the global equities markets which support the greenback which is looking having a brighter interest rate outlook differential right now comparing with the single currency which had new financial problems and very lower rates of growth losing the investors trust in holding it.
