    Greece will be back on the cards at some point as I don't think the ECB payout is the long term solution.

    Portugal still has issue, but always a case of whoever is in the most trouble is the headline. Was Italy, then Greece and now Spain. Portugal to come?

    Is the eurozone crisis over?

    It's been relatively quiet for a few weeks. Is the crisis over? Everyone solvent again?
