Why does Greece, with so little impact on the worlds GDP, have such a big effect on world markets?

The market always overreacts.

It causes instability in European financial markets.

Investors prefer stability.

I wouldn't buy or sell based on what happens in Greece.

It's not about GDP as much as it's about Greek debt that will become "bad" if they leave the eurozone, which seems quite possible at this point. That would have a very negative effect on European (mainly DAX) markets, and that would trickle over to the US.

That's oversimplified, but I think that's the central issue.

Others can add where needed.

In the grand scheme of things, it hasn't had that big of an effect.
