The common currency has lost 3.9 percent in May, almost reaching its record low of $1.2624 that it hit in mid-January. Today the euro gained 0.1 percent against the U.S. dollar and was traded at $1.2718. This positive movement is overshadowed by the news on ECB temporarily stopping loans to some Greek banks.
