September 04 2012 8:19 AM
The markets seem to be getting a little jittery as we lead up to the ECB meeting and narrow ranges abound. EURUSD gave up the 1.26 handle just before lunchtime in the London session after some news came out that said Spain would inject debt rather and cash into its struggling banking behemoth Bankia.
