Stocks Fall, Bond Risk Rises to Record Before Europe Debt Sales |
Bloomberg - Jan. 10, 2010 - By Stephen Kirkland
Stocks fell worldwide for a fourth day, while the cost of insuring sovereign debt against default rose to a record as European governments prepared to borrow at least $43 billion this week. Oil surged.
The MSCI World Index lost 0.7 percent to 1,272.55 at 9:41 a.m. New York time, while the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index slid 0.4 percent. Credit-default swaps on Portugal jumped nine basis points to a peak of 547, according to CMA. That helped push the Markit iTraxx SovX Western Europe index higher for a fourth day. The Dollar Index added 0.2 percent, its sixth day of gains, the longest run since June. Oil rose as much as 2.2 percent after a leak at an Alaskan pipeline.
Portugal, Spain and Italy are scheduled to hold their first bond auctions this year after borrowing costs increased at bill sales last week. Germany may be softening its opposition to expanding the 750 billion-euro ($966 billion) rescue facility for the region’s most-indebted countries, after Chancellor Angela Merkel’s chief spokesman, Steffen Seibert, declined to repeat the nation’s objections to restocking the fund.
“Europe’s debt woes are dominating market action,” Kathleen Brooks, research director at Gain Capital Group LLC in London, wrote in a report today. “If any of Europe’s large economies need help from the fund, that would require a completely new support system and a large injection. This could spread from a debt crisis to a currency crisis.”
The Stoxx Europe 600 Index fell 0.7 percent, as more than four companies declined for each that gained. Portugal’s PSI-20 Index tumbled 1.5 percent, while Spain’s IBEX 35 slid 1 percent. Bank stocks led the selloff, with KBC Groep NV, Belgium’s biggest lender, plunging 7.1 percent and Banco Comercial Portugues SA losing 3.3 percent.
