Greece looks like it will default on a repayment to the International Monetary Fund due tomorrow. That puts the debt-strapped country on the edge of fiscal collapse and raises the chances it could Grexit form the European Union — a “Grexit”. Greece’s Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras unexpectedly called for a referendum on whether to accept reform measures demanded by the country’s lenders. The country’s parliament approved the vote, which will be held July 5.

European stock markets were hit when trading opened today, with Germany’s DAX down more than 3%. Chinese stocks dropped, and the Shanghai Composite fell 3.3% further into bear-market territory despite a decision Saturday by China’s central bank to cut interest rates.

The Greek debt crisis put pressure on U.S. bank stocks. Citigroup led decliners, falling more than 2%, J.P. Morgan Chase fell 1.8%, Goldman Sachs dropped 1.6%.
