The common currency will probably demonstrate resilience considering the low probability of Le Pen winning the second round vote on May 7.
However, the near term revenues will be limited in the wake of the euro’s short-covering surge.
Surveys point out that the business-friendly Macron might grasp 61% of the vote against Le Pen after two defeated counterparts promised to back him to withstand her eurosceptic as well as anti-immigrant platform.
