You people have no sense of humour at all.
a) I'm aware of the fact that one of the main reasons of CAC40 outperformance is some support in the financials. The Financials relative performance have been a good barometer on how much people are really caring about this Greek stuff.
b) @Deadbroke That chart shows relative performance over the S&P500 in shitty, worthless dollars so it's a shitty, worthless comparing apples to oranges graph. Quite like everything you say, really. It doesn't matter what kind of bullshit ideas you have about the Euro, the market is always right and the market says FU to the USD, Ben Bernanke and the US fiscal policy. Rightfully so, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the Euro. Luckily, your countrymen have more sense than you because if more people were like you, I'd probably see the US turn into a third world country. Trailerpark groupthink, now that's a thing. "Ha our currency should be worth more cos we can kick your ass with our guns ya!" is the dumbest thing I've ever read on these boards.
c) I said "over the past few days". Now I know you have trouble with nuance and your reading skills are pretty sub par, so I won't hold this particular thing against you personally. But if you look at the past few days you will see it going up pretty fast.
d) You are on ignore. If anyone around here is an "ET retard" it's you. You contribute nothing positive nor insightful to any discussion you enter and you speak like a child. There is absolutely no way there is any truth to your stories on how you are such a market guru.
Edit: And if you have such a big problem with pricing the S&P500 in Euros, just price the CAC40 in dollars. Same shit, retard.
Edit2: And I just realized you are looking at the index chart there. The CAC40 is not a total return index so you have to look at its total-return ETF instead. This is relevant because there have been some pretty events that affected the index level. See here:

You will notice the CAC40 isn't even below the April dip, while the S&P500 is approaching the march lows. Give it a week or two and it'll make a new 52wk high.
