What Euro Crisis?

European leaders, led by French President Nicolas Sarkozy, declared in May a systemic crisis of the euro, thereby invoking a clause of the EU Treaty intended to help member countries facing the effects of natural disaster. But there is no crisis of the euro, only a search by markets for a new equilibrium on interest-rate spreads – which are still far below pre-euro levels.
