    U.S. Stocks Tumble, Sending Dow to Worst June Since Depression

    By Michael Patterson

    June 26 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks tumbled, sending the Dow Jones Industrial Average to its worst June since the Great Depression, as record oil prices, credit-market writedowns and a slowing economy threatened to extend a yearlong profit slump.

    General Motors Corp., the largest U.S. automaker, plunged the most in three years as Goldman Sachs Group Inc. advised selling the stock and crude rose by $5 a barrel. Citigroup Inc. led the KBW Bank Index to an almost 10-year low as Goldman said the lender may report an $8.9 billion second-quarter charge and cut its dividend. Research In Motion Ltd., maker of the BlackBerry, posted its biggest drop since 2001 on concern competition with Apple Inc.''s iPhone is reducing earnings.

    The Standard & Poor''s 500 Index plunged 38.82, or 2.9 percent, to 1,283.15, its biggest drop in three weeks. The Dow decreased 358.41, or 3 percent, to 11,453.42, its lowest since September 2006. The Nasdaq Composite Index sank 79.89, or 3.3 percent, to 2,321.37, its worst loss since January. Almost nine stocks fell for each that rose on the New York Stock Exchange.

    ``Most investors are going to sit on the sidelines until they''re more certain the sharks have left the waters and it''s safe to go back in,'''' said Bruce McCain, the Cleveland-based head of investment strategy at Key Private Bank, which oversees about $30 billion. ``The write-offs have been far worse than anyone would have imagined.''''

    Nike Earnings

    All 10 industry groups in the S&P 500 retreated at least 1 percent as Nike Inc. said U.S. earnings dropped and Oracle Corp. predicted the slowest sales growth since 2006, adding to concern that consumers and businesses are cutting back as the economy expands at the weakest pace in five years.

    Earnings at companies in the S&P 500 slid 18 percent on average in the first quarter, the third straight retreat, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Analysts project profits will drop 8.9 percent this quarter, according to a Bloomberg survey last week.

    The Dow has slumped 9.4 percent this month, its worst June since an 18 percent tumble in 1930 during the Great Depression. All 30 companies have posted losses in the month as oil surged, the unemployment rate jumped to the highest since 2004 and concern grew that global financial firms will add to $400 billion of subprime-related writedowns.

    The Dow''s retreat today erased all the gains since mid- March that were spurred by JPMorgan Chase & Co.''s rescue of Bear Stearns Cos., a drop in the Federal Reserve''s benchmark interest rate to 2 percent and the central bank''s new lending programs for securities firms.

    Citigroup, Merrill

    Citigroup dropped $1.18, or 6.3 percent, to $17.67 today, the lowest level since October 1998. Goldman added the biggest U.S. lender by assets to its ``conviction sell'''' list and lowered its recommendation on U.S. brokerages to ``neutral'''' from ``attractive,'''' saying the pace of deterioration in the industry ``appears to be far worse than'''' it originally anticipated.

    Merrill Lynch & Co., the third-largest U.S. securities firm, declined $2.41 to $33.05, a five-year low. Goldman analysts predicted the company will post a $3.55-a-share loss in 2008, compared with their previous estimate for an 8-cent profit.

    The Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund, a so-called exchange traded fund that tracks U.S. financial stocks, lost 3.6 percent to $20.90, the lowest since March 2003. The shares, known by their XLF ticker, were the fourth most-traded among stocks and ETFs in New York today. The KBW Bank Index of 24 companies dropped 3.9 percent to 60.20, the lowest since October 1998.

    `Ugly Day''

    ``It''s another ugly day,'''' said James Dunigan, the Philadelphia-based chief investment officer at PNC Advisors, which manages $70 billion. ``Until we get through another round of disclosures and through earnings season, the safest place is on the sidelines.''''

    Research In Motion plunged $18.88, or 13 percent, to $123.46. Second-quarter earnings will be as low as 84 cents a share, the company said. That missed the average prediction by analysts of 92 cents, according to a Bloomberg survey. The report marked Research In Motion''s first earnings disappointment in five quarters.

    Apple shares declined $9.13, or 5.2 percent, to $168.26, the lowest since April 23.

    GM fell $1.38, or 11 percent, to $11.43, the steepest slide since March 2005 and lowest price since 1974. Lear Corp., the second-largest maker of vehicle seats, lost $2.97, or 16 percent, to $15.15. Goldman downgraded both stocks to ``sell'''' from ``neutral.''''

    `Escalating Headwinds''

    ``We expect escalating headwinds from volume/mix pressures driven by gas prices, falling confidence and tightening credit,'''' Goldman wrote in a research note.

    GM and Chrysler LLC may face a cash crunch next year as U.S. sales decline on a slowing economy and rising gasoline prices that push buyers toward more fuel-efficient vehicles, Fitch Ratings said yesterday.

    Chrysler spokesman Dave Elshoff said in an interview today that the company has no plans to file for bankruptcy, countering speculation in financial markets.

    Companies in the S&P 500 that rely on discretionary consumer spending lost 3.5 percent as a group after oil prices jumped to $139.64 a barrel on Libya''s threat to cut production and OPEC''s prediction that prices may reach $170 by the summer.

    Nike retreated $6.47, or 9.8 percent, to $59.50, the biggest drop since February 2001. The world''s largest athletic- shoe maker said pretax income in the U.S. declined 10 percent to $390.7 million in the three months that ended May 31. U.S. orders through November were unchanged.

    Oracle, Lennar

    Oracle slipped $1.13 to $21.42. The world''s second-largest software maker expects first-quarter profit before some items of 26 cents to 27 cents a share. Analysts predicted 27 cents, according to the average of 16 estimates in a Bloomberg survey. Sales will rise between 18 percent and 20 percent, Oracle said.

    Lennar Corp. spurred declines in homebuilders after the company reported a loss that exceeded analysts'' estimates as it cut prices to attract buyers. The shares fell $1.23, or 8.4 percent, to $13.34. The S&P Supercomposite Homebuilding Index lost 5.6 percent as all 15 of its companies retreated.

    The VIX, as the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index is known, climbed for the first time this week, gaining 13 percent to 23.93. The index, which measures the cost of using options as insurance against declines in the S&P 500, reached the highest level since June 11. The VIX is still 26 percent below its five-year closing high in March.

    Economy Watch

    The U.S. economy expanded at an annual rate of 1 percent in the first quarter, capping the weakest six months of growth in five years, the Commerce Department said today. The revised gain in gross domestic product was up from a preliminary estimate of 0.9 percent issued last month.

    Initial jobless claims totaled 384,000 in the week ended June 21, unchanged from the previous week''s tally that was higher than previously estimated, the Labor Department said. The total number of people collecting benefits rose by 82,000 to 3.139 million in the week ended June 14, the highest since February 2004.

    Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. climbed $1.22, or 4.3 percent, to $29.79 for the top gain in the S&P 500. The largest U.S. home- furnishings retailer reported profit that fell less than analysts estimated because of higher sales.

    European stocks tumbled, sending the Dow Jones Stoxx 600 Index down 2.6 percent, as Belgium-based lender Fortis scrapped its dividend and said it will sell shares. Asian stocks advanced.

    Treasuries rose on speculation credit-market losses will prevent the Fed from increasing borrowing costs later this year. The dollar declined to the weakest level against the euro in more than two weeks.

    The Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Index, the broadest measure of U.S. shares, fell 2.8 percent to 13,125.12. Based on its decline, the value of stocks decreased by $477.5 billion.

    ``It''s the end of the quarter, oil is up and you''ve got a continued bashing of financials,'''' said David Heupel, who helps oversee about $60 billion as a portfolio manager at Thrivent Financial for Lutherans in Minneapolis. ``Plenty of fuel for the fire today.''''

    chính sách USD yếu vẫn sẽ tiếp tục được thực hiện cho đến khi nước Mỹ đi qua suy thoái. Và như vậy là nước Mỹ tiếp tục xuất khẩu lạm phát. Vàng và dầu hôm nay đã tăng siêu mạnh.

    Vietnam''s Inflation Accelerated to 26.8% in June (Update1)

    By Beth Thomas and Shamim Adam

    June 26 (Bloomberg) -- Vietnam''s consumer prices accelerated for a 16th month in June, suggesting the central bank may need to increase interest rates further to cool inflation that is running at the fastest pace in Asia.

    Consumer prices gained 26.8 percent from a year earlier, the biggest jump since at least 1992, from a rate of 25.2 percent in May, according to figures released by the General Statistics Office in Hanoi today. Prices rose 2.1 percent from the previous month.

    Vietnam''s interest rates are already the highest in the region after the central bank increased borrowing costs three times this year. Faster inflation is adding pressure on the government to take more steps to prevent surging global food and energy prices from worsening living conditions for the country''s 85 million people.

    ``Vietnam''s consumer prices aren''t going to go down very quickly,'''' said Sebastien Barbe, a Hong Kong-based strategist for the investment banking unit of France''s Credit Agricole SA. ``Inflation will remain in double digits for several quarters. We expect them to increase interest rates further, by another 2 percentage points.''''

    Record oil and commodity prices are fuelling inflation around the world. Crude reached $139.89 a barrel on June 16, while prices of grains such as rice, corn, wheat and soybean reached unprecedented levels in 2008.

    Food, Rice

    Food prices jumped 74.3 percent in June from a year earlier and 4.3 percent from May, the statistics office said. Prices in a broader food category that includes rice rose 45.6 percent from a year earlier.

    The government, which has made fighting inflation its priority, on June 3 cut the economic growth target for this year to 7 percent from 9 percent as it tries to slow price gains. Vietnam is aiming for 2009 growth of as much as 7.5 percent, according to a statement posted on the government''s Web site June 7. Growth quickened to 8.5 percent last year, the fastest in more than a decade.

    Prime Minister *************** has pledged to tame inflation as he seeks to restore investor confidence after the nation''s benchmark stock index lost more than half its value this year.

    Inflation ``will be brought down to a one-digit figure in 2009 or early 2010,'''' Dung, 58, said in an interview with Bloomberg Television in Washington late yesterday.

    The government, which caps gasoline prices to keep fuel affordable for Vietnamese, won''t raise fuel costs in June and will take into account global crude levels when deciding on any increase in July, Finance Minister Vu Van Ninh said on June 15 at the World Economic Forum on East Asia in Kuala Lumpur.

    Capital Controls

    The State Bank of Vietnam weakened the dong by 2 percent on June 11 to prevent currency speculation and raised interest rates to 14 percent from 12 percent to cool inflation.

    Stocks in the Southeast Asian nation have slumped almost 60 percent this year, the world''s worst performance, and the dong is set for its biggest drop since 2001, falling 3.8 percent.

    Vietnam''s ``extensive'''' capital controls and the management of its currency will prevent overseas investors from fleeing the nation even as inflation accelerates and economic growth slows, Ping Chew, the Singapore-based head of Asian sovereign and corporate ratings at Standard & Poor''s, said last week.

    The central bank announced today that it will widen the trading band for the dong. Starting tomorrow, the currency will be allowed to trade up to 2 percent on either side of a daily reference rate the central bank sets for the dong against the dollar, from 1 percent now.

    S&P was the first of three ratings companies to lower Vietnam''s credit outlook to negative, saying the country''s overheating economy was a risk to stability.

    Prices in the category that includes construction materials jumped 23.7 percent in June from a year earlier and 1.9 percent month-on-month. Prices in the category that includes transportation climbed 14.9 percent year-on-year.

    Japan Consumption, Inflation Reports Stoke Recession Concern
    By Mayumi Otsuma and Toru Fujioka

    June 27 (Bloomberg) -- Japan''s household spending slumped, job vacancies fell to a three-year low and the inflation rate almost doubled, signaling that the economy''s longest postwar expansion may be over.

    Stocks fell and bonds rose on concern that record crude oil prices will damp demand for Japan''s cars and flat-panel televisions. The risk of a recession will probably prevent the Bank of Japan from raising its benchmark interest rate from 0.5 percent even as inflation accelerates worldwide.

    ``We''re clearly seeing that the household sector is being severely damaged by the weaker job market and rapid inflation,'''' said Takahide Kiuchi, chief economist at Nomura Securities Co. in Tokyo. ``Japan''s economy is likely to contract in the second quarter.''''

    Household spending declined 3.2 percent, the most since September 2006, the statistics bureau said. The ratio of jobs for each applicant slid to 0.92. Core consumer prices, which exclude fruit, fish and vegetables, climbed 1.5 percent from a year earlier after rising 0.9 percent in April.

    The government downgraded its assessment of industrial production even after a report today showed output rose 2.9 percent from a month earlier, the first increase in three months. Production is showing signs of weakness because of higher energy costs and weakening global demand, the Trade Ministry said.

    The Nikkei 225 Stock Average tumbled 2.2 percent as of 9:54 a.m. in Tokyo. The yield on Japan''s 10-year bond fell 4.5 basis points to 1.61 percent. The yen traded at 106.90 per dollar from 106.88 before the reports were published.

    Bank of Japan

    ``With the economy slowing, the central bank cannot raise interest rates anytime soon,'''' said Tomoko Fujii, head of economics and strategy for Japan at Bank of America Corp.

    Oil prices have doubled in the past year, and surged to a record $140.39 a barrel yesterday. Higher energy and raw- materials costs will drag large manufacturers'' confidence to the lowest level in almost five years, economists predict the Bank of Japan''s Tankan business survey to show on July 1.

    First-quarter profits fell at the fastest pace since the economy emerged from its last recession in 2002.

    Honda Motor Co., Japan''s second-largest carmaker, said yesterday its domestic output and exports both fell 12 percent last month because of slower sales in the U.S. and the U.K.

    Higher prices for steel, rubber and aluminum have increased production costs at companies including Nissan Motor Co. Those costs are ``practically impossible to absorb,'''' Nissan''s Chief Executive Officer Carlos Ghosn told shareholders this week.

    Outlook `Uncertain''

    Japan''s economic outlook is increasingly ``uncertain,'''' central bank policy board member Seiji Nakamura said yesterday, citing the risk of slower global growth and the increase in energy and raw-materials costs. The bank is concerned higher prices may cause businesses and consumers to spend less, he said.

    ``Today''s economic data pointed to growing risks of stagflation,'''' said Mamoru Yamazaki, chief Japan economist at RBS Securities in Tokyo. ``Japan''s economy may fall into a recession.''''

    Higher food and fuel costs are forcing companies to raise prices that aren''t being accepted by consumers.

    Yamazaki Baking Co. and Nisshin Seifun Group Inc. raised prices of bread, cakes and pasta this year because of higher wheat costs. Consumers spent 5.9 percent less on bread and 6.1 percent less on pasta in May after makers raised prices, the statistics bureau said.

    Prices of daily necessities are climbing faster than wages, causing consumer sentiment to plunge to a six-year low in May. The unemployment rate stayed at 4 percent last month, the government said today.

    ``With profits being increasingly squeezed, there''s no room for companies to raise wages anytime soon,'''' said Hiroaki Muto, a senior economist at Sumitomo Mitsui Asset Management Co. in Tokyo.
