Euro tops $1.20 to hit highest level since early 2015

The euro topped $1.20 on Tuesday for the first time in more than two and a half years, as traders bet on the winding down of eurozone crisis-era stimulus measures.

At 0810 GMT, the single currency touched $1.2070, the highest level since early January 2015. That compared with $1.1978 late in New York on Monday.
