Euro Turns Down, Falls Below $1.25

The euro turned down on Monday, falling under $1.25 as equities extended their losses and Treasury bonds rose more on worries about Greece and the lack of details about Spain’s weekend bailout. The euro EURUSD -1.07% fell back to $1.2494 from $1.2512 late Friday in North American trading.

It rose as high as $1.2657 during the European session, Market Watch reported.

The dollar index DXY +0.07% , which tracks the U.S. unit against six major currencies, turned up to 82.501 from 82.439 late Friday.
