On Monday Indices of U.S. stock market have closed in different
directions. The main factor for the pressure was reported
decreases by the international rating agency Moody's long-term
credit rating of Greece just four stages to the level of Ba1 from
A3. At the same macroeconomic news background was quite
positive. According to statistic agency EU, industrial production in
the Euro zone increased to 0.8% in April 2010, with expectations
of growth at 0.5%. In addition, investors expected that the U.S.
Federal Reserve on June 16 will report an increase in industrial
production on 0.9% last month.
European stock exchanges were able to resist, despite the
negative message about a sharp decrease in rate in Greece.
Growth has contributed to reports of more significant increase in
industrial production in the Euro zone in April than expected.
Moreover, the British Management and Budget reported that the
UK budget deficit is expected to be lower than expected, despite
the weak economic growth. The deficit will fall from 155 billion
pounds in the current financial year to 71 billion pounds by April
