ECB’s Stark calls for less complex financial products, institutions

ECB economist Stark would like to put the toothpaste back in the tube and go back to a time when financial products were less complex and the institutions that sold them were simpler as well. Good luck with that, Herr Stark.

EUR/USD continues to grind lower, eying support at 1.4700 in the near-term. More stops are perched below that level. Investors have been pulling money out of Europe today for fears that Greece could be the tip of the proverbial credit iceberg.

EUR/USD trades now at 1.4714 while EUR/JPY is approaching 129.75 support.
