Brazil forex rebound on Greece hopes

Mexican peso and Brazilian real on Wednesday recovered part of recent losses on hopes Germany and France would work together to keep Greece in the euro zone, avoiding an escalation of the European debt crisis.
Also supporting the real was foreign investors' appetite for domestic stocks, which became more appealing in the past few days after a Greece-inspired sell-off.

Hopes Greece would avoid a traumatic departure from the euro increased on Wednesday, however, after German Chancellor Angela Merkel and new French President Francois Hollande said in a joint news conference they want Greece to stay in the euro zone.

"Brazilian stocks became cheap after the sell-off caused by global risk aversion in the past few days. They are luring foreign investors today and that has an impact on the currency," said Mario Battistel, a currency manager at Fair brokerage in Sao Paulo.

Euro Claws Back Some Of Its Losses Against Dollar

The euro clawed back some of its recent losses against the dollar Thursday on what market participants said was some slightly better news out of the battered common-currency zone. "There's been some marginally positive news out of Greece," said Omer Esiner, chief market analyst at Commonwealth Foreign Exchange in Washington. The country secured expected bailout funds that stave off an immediate default and there is some speculation the country could avoid a second round of elections, Esiner noted.
