GREEK and European equities and bonds surged on Monday and Tuesday on hopes that at worst there will be a fudged deal between the indebted depressed nation and its creditors.

Sanguine markets also ignored Greece's severe ongoing political problem of massive debt overhanging a deeply depressed economy with extensive unemployment and poverty.
