A meeting of leaders of the four largest countries in Rome on Friday suggested what might be expected from the full meeting this week. The leaders of Germany, France, Italy, and Spain agreed to a $163 billion growth pact, which mostly redirects existing funds.

While helpful, the plan, expected to be formalized at the summit, does not address the underlying weaknesses of the eurozone.
