European markets slump after Greece
wise-owl.comPowered by
U.S. stocks declined, with the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index reaching a
four-week low, as a slide in oil and metals weighed on commodities
producers and Greece asked for a deferral on its debt payments.
The S&P 500 lost 0.9 percent to 2,095.84 at 4 p.m. in New York.The
Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 170.69 points, or 0.9 percent,
to 17,905.58. The Nasdaq Composite Index retreated 0.8 percent. A
report today showed jobless claims decreased by 8,000 in the latest
week, while the total number of people receiving unemployment
insurance payments was the smallest in more than 14 years, signaling
the job market remains firm.
European stocks fell to the lowest level in almost a month after another
round of talks failed to end a Greek debt stalemate. The Stoxx Europe
600 Index slipped 0.8 percent to 392.65 at the close of trading. Stocks
tumbled as much as 1.9 percent earlier as bonds slumped and Greek
Prime Minister
Alexis Tsipras rejected proposals by creditors to help unlock more aid.
Deutsche Telekom AG gained 1.3 percent. T-Mobile US Inc., owned by
the German company, is in talks to merge with Dish Network Corp

DATE CODE COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENTAustralia Records Largest Trade Deficit
in its History
Trade deficit figures released on Thursday are the worst
numbers since data collection began in 1971. According to
data released by the Australia Bureau of Statistics, the
monthly trade deficit in April came to $3.90bn. “Australia's
April trade data was a disaster," said JP Morgan analyst
Tom Kennedy. "The largest deficit ever recorded, on a data
series that dates back to 1971.” Projections from the same
US-bank pegged the trade deficit to come in at $2.1bn. The
country posted a trade deficit of $1.2bn in the previous
month.
