There seems to be nothing particularly EUR positive to give the market its latest boost but more a function of downward momentum flagging and dealers cover shorts ahead of the weekend. Talk of Citi, BofA or both being nationalized over the weekend continues to swirl and traders may be dumping some dollars on that possibility rather than the more traditional EUR/USD sales that normally accompany risk aversion. Position aversion seems to be the trend with dealers heading for the sidelines en masse. EUR/USD has reached 1.2702 this far.
