| Services sector slips in March: ISM Posted: NEW YORK (Reuters) - The pace of growth in the U.S. services sector slipped in March after hitting its highest level in a year the previous month, as a gauge of new orders declined, according to an industry report released on Wednesday. The Institute for Supply Management said its services sector index fell to 56.0 last month from 57.3 in February, shy of economists' forecasts for 57.0. A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector. The new orders index declined to 58.8 from 61.2, though the employment index improved to 56.7 from 55.7. A measure of prices paid was dialed back to 63. ... |

| Fiat sees Europe 2012 car sales down for fifth year Posted: TURIN, Italy (Reuters) - European new car sales will decline for the fifth year in a row in 2012 to 13 million units, Fiat Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne said on Wednesday, predicting stabilisation and the beginnings of a recovery only at the end of the year. That would compare with 13.1 million cars sold in Europe last year, and almost 16 million cars sold in 2007, before the start of the financial crisis, according to figures from lobby group ACEA. ... |
| Monsanto posts record Q2, sales jump 15 percent Posted: (Reuters) - Global agribusiness company Monsanto Co posted a higher-than-expected quarterly profit on Wednesday, as the company said early U.S. spring planting and a 15 percent sales jump boosted its full-year outlook. Shares sagged after an early jump amid a general market slump and as the company said results for the second half of the year would likely be flat. Still, the company was on pace for a strong year, said Monsanto Chairman Hugh Grant. ... |
| EU makes new bid to end deadlock on bank capital Posted: BRUSSELS (Reuters) - EU countries are making a fresh attempt to break the deadlock over new bank capital rules and ministers are due to meet on May 2, officials and diplomats said, accelerating efforts to find agreement on measures crucial for lending and the economy. The European Commission has proposed new standards for the amount of capital banks across the 27-state European Union must hold to cover risks. ... |

| Trump scion says India top focus for realty mogul Posted: MUMBAI (Reuters) - American property mogul Donald Trump targets India above other emerging economies, his son and business partner said, as the flamboyant tycoon looks to crack a notoriously tough real estate industry with his brand of luxury homes and hotels. Trump's eponymous real estate group expects to sign multiple deals for Indian residential projects and hotel contracts over the next five years, despite a market riddled by regulatory uncertainty and bureaucratic red tape. ... |
| Europe's banks face $323 billion capital hole Posted: LONDON (Reuters) - Europe's top banks would have had to raise 242 billion euros ($323 billion) or more to achieve minimum capital ratios if tougher rules that are coming in for the industry had been in force last year. The European Banking Authority (EBA) said on Wednesday that if the Basel III capital rules had been in force at the end of June then 27 of Europe's top 48 banks would have had a minimum core Tier 1 capital adequacy ratio of less than 7 percent of assets, which is the target level for banks to meet when new rules come into force. ... |

| Spanish debt yields rise as deficit problems mount Posted: MADRID/LISBON (Reuters) - Spanish borrowing costs jumped at bond auctions on Wednesday, spreading fear in wider European markets and overshadowing a successful step back into debt markets by neighboring Portugal. Spain sold 2.6 billion euros of debt, at the low end of its target range, with a bond maturing in 2020 yielding an average 5.338 percent, up from a forecast 5.2 percent and 5.156 when it was last sold in September. Portugal sold 1 billion euros of 18-month T-bills, its longest dated debt since the European Union and International Monetary Fund bailed the country out, with a 4. ... |

| Euro zone sales disappoint, prospects poor Posted: BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Shoppers in the euro zone cut back on their spending in February as households faced stubborn inflation, growing unemployment lines and pay freezes across the public and private sector. Retail sales in the 17 countries using the euro fell 0.1 percent month on month, Eurostat said on Wednesday. Economists polled by Reuters had expected sales volumes to be unchanged. In an indication that household demand will do little to revive the subdued euro zone economy as it heads into recession this year, retail sales were down 2.1 percent on an annual basis. ... |

| Spanish debt struggles after sale; ECB hold rates Posted: LONDON (Reuters) - Spanish bond prices fell on Wednesday after the government paid a high rate to borrow through medium-term bonds, a sign that resurgent concern over the country's fiscal problems was dampening appetite for its debt. Euro zone bonds markets showed little reaction after the European Central Bank held interest rates at a record low of 1.0 percent, as widely expected. Spain sold 2.6 billion euros of 2015, 2016 and 2020 bonds - at the low end of its target range - and the average yield rose on all three. ... |
