"The risk of another Greek election is almost 100 percent while the biggest party according to polls is against the euro"

Swiss stocks lost ground on Monday on concern Greece will exit the Eurozone.
The Swiss blue-chip index SMI, a measure of the largest and most actively traded companies, fell 1.33%, or 79.22 points, to 5,875.66. The broader Swiss Performance Index lost 1.39%, or 77.36 points, to 5,495.76.
"The risk of another Greek election is almost 100 percent while the biggest party according to polls is against the euro," said Witold Bahrke, a senior strategist at PFA Pension A/S in Copenhagen.
"Other European politicians are increasingly playing hardball, so the risk of Greece leaving the euro is surely on the rise."
