			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Qatar Airways, the first customer for the A350 XWB, the new long-haul Airbus will have to be patient. EADS, the parent of European manufacturer, announced on Friday on the occasion of the publication of the results of nine months, the factory of the competitor of Boeing Dreamliner will be the first half of 2014 rather than late 2013. The assembly of the first aircraft factory in Toulouse, will begin in the first quarter of next year and not at the end of this year. This delay will cost 200 million euros at EADS, which has set aside that amount in its accounts. </p>
<p> These announcements reflect &quot;what we know today,&quot; said Hans Peter Ring, Chief Financial Officer of EADS. The band plays caution. He prefers to deliver defect-free devices instead of doing everything to meet its production schedule. The European giant draws lessons from the excesses of the A380.The announcement of the delays of the A380 in June 2006 caused a collapse of the action and the most serious crisis in the history of the company. </p>
<p> This decision revealed seventy-two hours before the opening of the Dubai Air Show was predictable. In June, during the Paris Air Show, Airbus announced a year and a half behind two of the three versions of the A350 XWB. Management had set the stage by explaining the weeks preceding the calendar was tense for &quot;a very risky program.&quot; </p>
<p> In late September, Thomas Enders, CEO of Airbus, told the BBC: &quot;We always start date for the final assembly of the first aircraft in late 2011. But there is no magic date. We learned a lesson simple enough for the A 380: it is useless to push sections of the aircraft on the assembly line if they are not ready. &quot;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> France will she run out of stones in 2030? The threat is real lack for material needed to build roads, homes and offices, according to the National Union of Aggregates (UNPG), who sounded the alarm in the spring. </p>
<p> This seems incongruous. With the crisis, sales of aggregates are indeed increased from 431,000 tons three years ago to 365,000 tonnes in 2010. &quot;But over a long period, the annual consumption of the Hexagon is around 400 million tonnes, says Nicolas Vuillier, president of the UNPG. One kilometer of highway requires 30,000 tons of aggregates, construction of a hospital between 20,000 and 40,000 tons. But with environmental constraints, a lot of careers close.Today, there are still 2500, 5000 against fifteen years ago. &quot; </p>
<p> This intensified competition among the three main French actors, groups BTP Vinci and Bouygues (through their subsidiary road, and Eurovia Colas, respectively), followed by building materials giant Lafarge. Eurovia built last year a turnover of 500 million euros, extracting 55 million tonnes of its French quarries. </p>
<p> The pebbles are attracting ever-increasing appetite, because this business can secure the supply of concrete for groups of building materials, and asphalt for road specialists. In addition, their operation is a high margin business. On average, operating income up 20% of their turnover. &quot;Careers require a lot of investment grade Guy Vacher, Chief Operating Officer of Eurovia.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> After resisting the morning, the Paris index has increased its losses Tuesday mid-day, finishing down 1.43% to 3174.29 points. Parisian investors have expressed a wait-and very excited at the eve of an EU summit in crisis considered major. Sign of a strong wait-and trading volumes did not exceed 2.6 billion euros. Some profit taking after two sessions of strong gains also came influencing the trend. Less marked decline elsewhere in Europe, where the German Dax has limited its losses to 0.14% at 6045 points and the FTSE in London 0.41% to 5525.54 points. </p>
<p> Immersed for weeks in a deep pessimism, investors had played the crisis Friday and Monday. However, the ability of European leaders to respond definitively to the debt crisis is still struggling to convince.A phenomenon that confirm the disagreements between countries in the euro area on the measures to adopt, and just wiping out the gains Monday. If the preparatory meeting of finance ministers of 27 (Ecofin) has been canceled, the leaders of the euro area, however, continue to negotiate before the meeting tomorrow Wednesday of Heads of State and Government (first of 27 and 17 of the the euro area). </p>
<p> At the heart of the discussions: the recapitalization of banks, the amount of the discount of the Greek debt, and strengthening the European bailout fund (EFSF). According to one diplomatic source, the representatives of the banks would like to limit the discount to 40% volunteered to stabilize the Greek debt, against 50 to 60% required by the euro area.Moreover, concerns about the Italian situation is escalated, as Silvio Berlusconi may have trouble getting the promised reforms the last weekend to reduce the debt of his country <a href="http://payday-badcredit.com">payday advance</a><!-- . -->. The Prime Minister pledged to push trans to 67 years of age retirement. </p>
<p> Diving morale of U.S. households
<p> In this context, mixed economic data revealed the Atlantic have increased pessimism. Stabilization of U.S. house prices in August, according to the Case Shiller index, and the unexpected plunge in the morale of U.S. households in October, have reinforced doubts about the health of the world&#39;s largest economy. </p>
<p> By sector, banks are logically the most attacked, BNP Paribas, lost 3.75% to 30.80, Societe Generale fell back to 3.80%, to 19 euros. Axa was down 1.76% to 10.90 euros.François Fillon, French Prime Minister confirmed that the banks of the Hexagon should recapitalize to the tune of &quot;ten billion euros.&quot; </p>
<p> In contrast, cyclical stocks including oil services, were well oriented, supported by oil prices that reached a high for about three months. Maurel &amp; Prom has awarded 2.86% to 14.90 euros and CGG Veritas was up 1.21% to 16.73 euros. </p>
<p> Also against the current, and two days before unveiling its sales for the third quarter, the title of Plastic Omnium has continued to rise (3.35%, to 20.76 euros) having already jumped more than 10% two sessions. Finally, on the eve of the announcement of its quarterly revenue, PPR has taken the lead in the CAC 40 with a gain of 3.84% to 111 euros. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The debt crisis in the euro area is growing. After Moody&#39;s threw the trouble on the debt rating of France, the rating agency has put his threat for Spain. Following in the footsteps of Standard and Poor&#39;s and Fitch, the rating agency lowered the credit rating of the fourth largest economy in the euro area by two notches to &quot;A1&quot; instead of &quot;Aa2&quot;. </p>
<p> Moody&#39;s, however, shows more severe than its competitors. She attributed to Spain&#39;s fifth best mark where Standard and Poor&#39;s and Fitch gives it their fourth best. Moody&#39;s and depriving the country of the issuer status for high-quality issuers to the rank swallow solids but may be affected by changes in economic conditions. Like its competitors, the rating indicates the rating of Spain could again be lowered to medium term <a href="http://payday-4all.com">faxless payday advance</a><!-- . -->.</p>
<p> To justify its decision, the agency said that &quot;Spain continues to be vulnerable to market pressures&quot; that economic growth should reach only 1% at best in 2012 (and not 1.8% as the Moody&#39;s previously thought), and that it &quot;will make it more difficult to achieve the ambitious budgetary targets&quot; of the country. Moody&#39;s also kept a &quot;negative outlook&quot; rating on the Spanish because of the &quot;risk posed to the country for worsening of the crisis in the euro area.&quot; </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The fear of a slowing Chinese economy weigh on Asian stock markets. On Tuesday, the day after a session, however encouraging, the Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong and Shanghai Composite Index unleash respectively 3.34% and 1.67 points to 18,243.31% to 2399.58 points. Investors react to the publication of a slowdown in Chinese growth to 9.1% in the third quarter, against 9.7% and 9.5% in the first and second quarters.After this bad figure, other regional financial centers are also displayed down: the Nikkei of the Tokyo Stock Exchange lost 1.47% to 8749.08 points, the Kospi index in Seoul fell by 1.47% to 1837.73 points, the S &amp; P / ASX 200 Index yields 1.82% at Sydney 4197.70 points, the BSE Sensex 30 in Mumbai fold from 1.66% to 16,742.80 points and the FTSE Straits Times of Singapore gives up 1.78% to 2729.51 points. </p>
<p> &quot;Economic growth is currently facing a more complicated on both external and internal plans,&quot; said the spokesman for the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Sheng Laiyun commenting on the growth of China. In fact, Chinese exporters are beginning to suffer from particular sovereign debt crisis in Europe, their largest market, a difficult economic situation in the United States.The Chinese economy is also impacted by rising wages and strong yuan, has appreciated by 7% in a year against the dollar. &quot;The number of factors of instability and uncertainty increases,&quot; says Sheng Laiyun. </p>
<p> The concern weighing on Europe
<p> In this context, the correct figures for China&#39;s industrial production have gone unnoticed <a href="http://pay-day-loans-4all.com">cheap pay day loans</a><!-- . -->. This has increased by 13.8% in September year on year, according to BNS. </p>
<p> In addition, concerns about the debt crisis in Europe grew yesterday and weigh Surles markets. The German Minister of Economics Wolfgang Schäuble has indeed warned that the EU summit to be held in Brussels Sunday will not lead to a definitive solution to the debt crisis. And, while the central bankers of the euro zone had promised a response &quot;comprehensive and lasting peace&quot; to the crisis at the G20 finance this weekend in Paris.</p>
<p> China Eastern Airlines to Hong Kong and Tepco
<p> On the corporate side, China Eastern Airlines (-7.02% to 2.65 Hong Kong dollars) on Monday announced an agreement to acquire 15 Airbus A330 family for a selected list price of $ 2.5 billion, for delivery between 2013 and 2015. </p>
<p> Note that Tepco, the operator of the nuclear accident in Fukushima, yields 1.38% in Tokyo, after asking the first tranche of public assistance of some 700 billion yen (6.7 billion euros) for finance part of the compensation of victims, according to Japanese media on Tuesday. </p>
<p> On the front of currencies, the euro rose 0.28% to 1.377 dollars on Tuesday. Oil is meanwhile down in Asia after the confirmation of a slowdown in Chinese growth in the third quarter against a backdrop of skepticism about a speedy resolution of sovereign debt crisis in the euro area.The barrel of &quot;light sweet crude&quot; for delivery in November, up in the early electronic trading, lost 9 cents to 86.29 dollars, around 6:00. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> New blow for SocGen. While the second French bank is particularly turbulent stock market since the beginning of the summer, with a share price halved in three months, she has to face new suspicions. After the unfounded rumors about the supposed risks of bankruptcy, after questioning by U.S. authorities in a fraud complaint on subprime, Societe Generale now sees its relationship with the Gaddafi regime scrutinized. The new Libyan authorities are looking into effect on the investment made by the French bank with the Libyan sovereign fund, the Libyan Investment Authority, reports the Wall Street Journal. Some of these funds would have landed in the hands of people close to the government in place, the paper said.Societe Generale would have paid a certain amount to a Panamanian company, Leinad, to help organize and advise an investment of one billion dollars in 2008. If the exact mission of Leinad is not yet clear, its role has at least been criticized by members of the Libyan sovereign fund, before the start of the Libyan revolt, the newspaper said <a href="http://pay-day-loans-i.com">payday lenders</a><!-- . -->. </p>
<p> For now, the bank declined to comment on its relations with the sovereign fund Leinad or Libya, says the Wall Street Journal. Societe Generale, however, said she has &quot;worked occasionally with financial intermediaries in countries where it is not directly present.&quot;And these consultants are &quot;fully selected and monitored in accordance with our procedures and ethics with the law and in full transparency with the customer,&quot; said the group, some have &quot;acted in full accordance with the laws and regulations the sovereign &quot;. </p>
<p> Throughout the reign of Colonel Gaddafi, it was indeed common for large groups pay foreign intermediaries, advisors and consultants to do business with Libya. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Washington, our correspondent </p>
<p> Dominique Strauss-Kahn said goodbye as expected Monday afternoon in Washington with his colleagues in the IMF. Refusing to say more, the spokesman confirmed that DSK was also &quot;briefly&quot; met with Christine Lagarde before. It was &quot;private meetings&quot; held at the request of DSK and that the press was not invited. </p>
<p> The IMF staff was asked to say &quot;goodbye&quot; in a room usually devoted to the headquarters press conferences. Tea and coffee were served. Dominique Strauss-Kahn is mounted on the platform to speak for ten minutes. He wanted not only to greet his colleagues, but he also apologized twice &quot;for the harm done&quot; to the institution. </p>
<p> A lot of people to greet him was in a hurry. &quot;Several hundred&quot; witnesses said. &quot;He was applauded.The atmosphere was warm, &quot;commented one frame. Many, especially women, especially African, wanted to be photographed with him. </p>
<p> DSK told his audience of the importance of imagination in the IMF mission. He also said that if their recommendations had been followed eight months ago, Europe would not be where it is today. </p>
<p> A popular leader
<p> The ousted boss of the IMF gave no indication of its political intentions or professional on his return to France. He however praised the speech made Saturday by Christine Lagarde warned that the G20 leaders risk of relapse into recession and the need to practice in the short term even the stimulus spending <a href="http://easy-quick-payday-loans.com">quick cash</a><!-- . -->. </p>
