Financeroll European markets rose Tuesday afternoon, taking a positive turn following sharp swings back and forth throughout the session, with bank stocks leading

the gains.

  The Stoxx Europe 600 index rose 0.7% to 220.42, having earlier lost as much as 1.5% to hit its lowest level since July 2009. Banks were among the top performers following heavy losses in the previous session. Shares ofSociete Generale SA rose 7.7%, rallying after Chief Executive

  

Frederic Oudea reportedly said that the lender has plenty of liquidity buffers and that market declines were based on “irrational fears.” The stock had tumbled about

11% on Monday, in part amid fears that it will be downgraded by Moody’s Investors Service.

  Shares of BNP Paribas SA was among the few fallers in the sector, slipping 1% Tuesday afternoon, but this also marked a solid recovery after tumbling as much as 12% earlier in the day. The bank said it “categorically denies” claims made by an anonymous source in a Wall Street Journal op-ed article that it’s having liquidity problems. The French CAC 40 index rose 0.2% to 2,861.82. Also Tuesday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel reportedly sought to downplay fears of an imminent default by Greece, saying Europe is doing all it can to “avoid disorderly processes.” Earlier, reports that China might purchase Italian debt had helped boost markets.

  While those early gains quickly faded, shares of UniCredit SpA swung higher again in afternoon trading. The stock rose 6.4% as the Italian FTSE MIB index climbed 1.9% to 13,727. Italy on Tuesday completed the sale of 3.9 billion euros of new five-year bonds, selling the debt at an average yield of 5.6%, compared with 4.93% in July when it last sold similar debt, according to Bloomberg. The bid-to-cover ratio, which gives an indication of investor demand, fell to 1.28 times the amount on offer, down from 1.93. Among other stocks in focus, shares of Cairn Energy PLC tumbled 10% in London after the oil and gas exploration group said it is preparing to plug and abandon a Greenland well that failed to discover oil. The stock was the worst performer within theU.K.’s FTSE 100 index which rose 0.2% to 5,139.45, led by a 2.5% rise for Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC. Airline stocks were also some of the worst performers in Europe. Air France-KLM dropped 1.2% in Paris and Deutsche Lufthansa AG fell 2.4% in Frankfurt, making it the worst performer on the DAX 30 index. The German index rose 1.5% to 5,149.10 as Deutsche Bank rallied 7% amid the strong gains across most of the banking sector.[Bloomberg/Financeroll/Dny]

Financeroll Cotton production in Australia, the fourth-largest exporter, may reach a record 1.1 million tons this year, in line with June’s forecast, according to the

report. Production may have reached 898,000 tons in 2010-2011, buoyed by rainfall, the bureau said.

  

La Nina-linked wet weather brought record rainfall to parts of eastern Australia last year, ending drought and replenishing dams used for irrigating cotton, which is

planted around November and mostly harvested from April.

Canola production is expected at 2.29 million tons in 2011- 2012, compared with the 2.27 million tons predicted in June. Output may reach about 2.5 million tons, the

Australian Oilseeds Federation said Aug. 16. The bureau raised its forecast for barley production to 8.3 million tons from 8.09 million tons in June and compared with

  9.3 million tons in the previous year. According to the bureau, production of summer crops, planted in the next few months and harvested next year, may increase to total 4.8 million tons from 4.7 million in 2010-2011.[Bloomberg/Financeroll/Dny]

Financeroll Australia may ship a record amount of wheat in the coming year, displacing the European Union as the world’s second-biggest supplier, and helping

cap gains in global prices.

  The country may export 20.4 million metric tons in the year starting Oct. 1, the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences said today. That’s 1.5 percent more than predicted on June 15 and 9.4 percent higher than the previous year, the bureau said. Production was forecast at 26.2 million tons, unchanged from its previous estimate and just short of the record 26.3 million tons in 2010-2011, it said. Increased sales would add to global supplies, potentially curbing prices that surged 19 percent since July 1 when Russia resumed exports after an almost yearlong ban and drought wilted crops across the Great Plains in the U.S. Global inventories may total 194.59 million tons by May 31, 3 percent more than estimated in August, as production in Russia and Canada climbs, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said yesterday.

  

Wheat exports from the European Union may slump 29 percent to 16 million tons in 2011-2012, according to USDA data. That would lift Australia into second place

  globally behind the U.S. Wheat for December delivery on the Chicago Board of Trade gained as much as 0.7 percent to $7.32 a bushel and traded at $7.29 at 4 p.m. in Melbourne. Futures slumped 5.9 percent last week after climbing 11 percent in August. The area sown to wheat may decline to 14.1 million hectares (35 million acres) from 14.3 million hectares estimated in June, the bureau said. Plantings in Western Australia, set to be the biggest producer, may total 5.1 million hectares, it said. Recent dry weather has spurred concerns that lower yields on the east coast may offset optimism that output in Western Australia will boost the harvest. The

  

Murray-Darling Basin, which extends from southern Queensland to South Australia, had the driest June since 1986, according to the Bureau of Meteorology. New South

Wales, the biggest wheat producer in 2010-2011, had below-average rainfall in July, it said.

Wheat production in Western Australia may total 9 million tons in 2011-2012, 3 percent more than the June forecast and almost double last year’s drought-affected

harvest, the bureau said. The Grain Industry Association of Western Australia said Aug. 22 output may surge 76 percent to 8.05 million tons.

  Cotton Record Australia’s total winter-crop production, including wheat, barley and canola, may be 41 million tons in 2011-2012, the fourth-largest on record, according to the bureau. That compares with a June forecast of 40.8 million tons, the bureau said. Last year’s total was estimated at 42 million tons, it said.[Bloomberg/Financeroll/Dny]

  Financeroll.com -- POSCO, is seeking to beef up its presence in South Asia by acquiring shares in a Pakistani steel company. They said at Tuesday that they has clinched a deal with Al Tuwairqi Holding Co. of Saudi Arabia to buy a 15.34 percent stake in Tuwairqi Steel Mills Ltd (TSML). for $15 million. TSML is working to build a production complex in Karachi, the country’s financial capital. TSML plans to begin commercial production in January with an annual capacity of 1.28 million metric tons of direct-reduced iron, POSCO said. POSCO aims high as the deal will enable the steel mill to rake in dividends and expand its business scope in the world’s sixth most populous country with more than 180 million. “Pakistan’s steel industry has a high growth potential,” said Chung Joon-yang, chief executive. “Through the contract, POSCO will gain a foothold in Pakistan and boost business opportunities for affiliates involving construction, engineering and information and technology and others.” The Pohang-based company has been scaling up its business in South Asia as demand spirals in the emerging markets there, led by India. POSCO estimates Pakistan’s steel demand at 12 million metric tons in 2020, up more than 70 percent from 7 million metric tons last year. It is injecting about $12 billion into an iron ore mine and a project to establish an integrated steelworks in Orissa, eastern India. POSCO projects the new plant to be able to churn out 12 million metric tons of steel a year until 2020, and the mine to have an annual output of 20 million tons.

Financeroll US import prices fell in August due to lower fuel costs, potentially giving the central bank more room for stimulus measures to boost the economy,

data showed on Tuesday.

  A drop in prices for petroleum helped push import prices 0.4 percent lower following a 0.3 percent increase in the previous month, the Labor Department said in a report. Prices for food and industrial materials also fell. Analysts polled by Reuters had expected import prices to fall 0.8 percent in August. Excluding petroleum, import prices rose 0.3 percent, accelerating from a 0.1 percent increase in July. With unemployment stuck near 9 percent and wages stagnant, more costly imports have been a principle form of inflationary pressure in the U.S. economy. Highlighting how much oil prices have risen, petroleum import prices were up 43.5 percent in August from a year earlier.

  

US Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said last week that such pressures would ease due to tamer prices for oil and other commodities. Less inflation

pressure gives the Fed more room to try to boost growth, and policymakers are expected to unveil more stimulus measures soon.

  "The decline in market energy and commodity prices in recent weeks is likely to lead to a further easing in headline import prices," said Peter Newland, an analyst at Barclays Capital in New York. Newland said, however, the report suggested pipeline pressures at the core level continue to build, reflecting the effects of a weaker dollar and inflationary pressures abroad.

  Bernanke had suggested a rebound in auto production following Japan's March earthquake disaster -- which created bottlenecks in the industry that pushed prices higher -- would ease inflation pressures as well. Prices for imported cars and car parts were unchanged last month, while consumer goods rose 0.3 percent when autos and parts were stripped out. Export prices rose 0.5 percent in August after falling 0.4 percent in July. Economists had expected export prices to be unchanged last month.[Reuters/Financeroll/Dny]

Financeroll Wall Street's edgy run is set to continue, as theindex futures point to a lower opening on Tuesday. Of late, headlines emerging about theEuropean

debt crisis have been swaying the markets and a case in point was yesterday's late-session bounce, which was brought about by news that beleaguered Italy has a

  sympathizer in the form of China. Earlier today, stocks across Europe ignored a fairly robust opening and went into a tailspin after aWall Street Journal report suggested that France's BNP Paribas doesn't have access to the U.S. money markets any more.

  As of 6:30 am ET, the Dow Jones futures index are moving down 137 points, the S&P 500 futures index are slipping 16.40 points and the Nasdaq 100 futures are declining 24.50 points. After trading below the unchanged line for the bulk of the session on Monday, weighed down by European debt worries, the major U.S. averages recovered due to a late-session buying surge, which lifted the averages moderately higher. The late-session optimism came on the back of reports that suggested that China may be buying Italian bonds, which should come as a relief for the debt-strapped nation. On the economic front, the export & import price indexes for August, which gives the changes in the prices of non-military goods and services traded between the U.S. and the rest of the world, are due out at 8:30 am ET. The consensus estimates call for a 0.3 percent drop in import prices for the month. At 2 pm ET, the Treasury Budget is due to be released. Economists expect a deficit of $132 billion for August. In corporate front, there have been some negative pre-announcements. Diodes lowered its gross margin guidance for the third quarter, citing unfavorable pricing and the need to shift the product mix to maintain full loadings at its manufacturing operations. The company, however, maintained its revenue guidance, which surrounds the consensus estimates.[RTTnews/Financeroll/Dny]

Financeroll – The Nikkei stock average rose 1 percent on Tuesday as short-covering emerged after a tumble the day before, but traders said gains may be short-lived

as investors focus on Europe's persistent debt woes and the U.S. economic outlook.

  A late-stage rebound on Wall Street on a report that Italy could get financial support from China helped the Nikkei move away from Monday's 2- year closing low. Traders said futures buying by program traders pushed the index higher in the afternoon as the euro rose against the yen, but the index will in the next week likely be capped below 8,732, the settlement level for futures and options expired in September.

  The market is now looking ahead to a meeting of euro zone finance ministers on Friday, which U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is also set to attend. While Europe's problems are in the spotlight, investors have not forgotten that the strength of the U.S. economy remains a concern. The U.S. Federal Reserve is expanding its September meeting from the original single day session to two days on September 20-21, and analysts took the move to mean that the Fed will take extra time to mull its monetary policy response to the downbeat economic outlook.

  The benchmark Nikkei gained 1.0 percent to 8,616.55, while the broader Topix index rose 1.2 percent to 749.82. The benchmark was trading well above its next major downside target of 8,227.63, the intraday low hit on March 15 when stocks were sold off after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami. Ahead of that, traders cited some support around 8,500.

  

Nintendo Co fell 5.1 percent to 12,320 yen as investors unloaded the game console maker's shares ahead of Tuesday's conference on its 3DS handheld device, a fund

  manager said, adding that a recent negative view on the company by Macquarie Securities also dampened sentiment toward the stock. At the conference, Nintendo announced a raft of new software in an attempt to prop up disappointing sales of the 3DS, but there was no sign of the add-on accessory that games blogs have said is in the works. Shares of other game companies also tumbled, with Capcom Co dropping 8.3 percent to 1,974 yen and Square Enix shedding 3.9 percent to 1,468 yen.

  

Panasonic Corp dropped 1.6 percent to 740 yen after Macquarie Securities cut its target price on the issue to 685 yen from 850 yen. Macquarie maintained its

"underperform" rating, saying the company faces macroeconomic weakness and worsening consumer electronics sales, as well as restructuring charges.

Elpida Memory surged 13 percent to 557 yen after rival Micron Technologies shares rose as much as 6 percent in U.S. trading on Monday. UBS added Micron to its

"most preferred" list based on an expected bottoming out in DRAM memory chip pricing, a factor that a fund manager said will also help shares of its competitors.

STOCK INDEX

  Asian stocks rose Tuesday, taking back some of the previous session’s steep losses, as anxiety over Europe’s debt crisis calmed a little following a report that China might step in and buy Italian bonds.

  

Nikkei Futures down 0.93% on Tuesday as short-covering emerged after a tumble the day before, but traders said gains may be short-lived as investors focus on

  Europe's persistent debt woes and the U.S economic outlook. A late-stage rebound on Wall Street on a report that Italy could get financial support from China helped the Nikkei move away from Monday's 2-1/2 year closing low. The market is now looking ahead to a meeting of euro zone finance ministers on Friday, which U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is also set to attend.

  KOSPI Futures and Hangseng Futures were closed for holiday.

  US stocks rallied to finish higher in another volatile session Tuesday, led by industrials and materials, but investors continued to remain cautious over the euro zone debt crisis and the economy. The BRICS major emerging markets are in "preliminary stage" talks about increasing their holdings of euro-denominated bonds in an effort to help ease the euro zone debt crisis, according to a Reuters report, citing Brazilian government officials. European shares finished higher, led by banks, following news that Greek PM George Papandreou is scheduled to hold a conference call with Merkel and Sarkozy on Wednesday to focus on developments on Greece's economy.

  Apple edged higher after RBC said they see an unprecedented demand for the tech giant's new iPhone 5. RBC has an "outperform" rating on the stock and a $500 price target. JPMorgan also gained after Stifel Nicolaus upgraded the bank to "buy" from "hold." However, the bank scaled down their banking outlook, saying market revenue will be down from the second qurater and investment banking fees will be about $1 billion for the current quarter. Dow Jones industrial average was up 0.40%. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 0.91%. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 1.49%.

  

Concerns over good reports from Europe, good perform from technology and bank sectors in Wall Street may lead Asian stock indices to go up on

Wednesday. FOREX

  The dollar fell Tuesday as U.S. stocks gained, indicating some calming of fears about European debt. After bouncing around in a narrow range through the European and Asian sessions, the dollar index, which measures the U.S. unit against a basket of six currencies, fell to 76.925 from 77.543 in late North American trading on Monday. The dollar has gone back to sometimes benefiting from shifts toward safer assets in times of market turmoil, including when stocks sell off. German stocks also recovered from earlier declines.

  But the euro has held in a tight range and needs more positive news about debt or economic growth in the region to break higher. So far this month, the euro has lost about 4.5% against the dollar as worries about European debt keep popping up and the European Central Bank has hinted it may be done raising interest rates, effectively pulling out a major support for the shared currency. The Japanese yen is also viewed as a relative safe haven, and at one point on Monday, the euro dropped to ¥103.88 — its lowest level since mid-2001 against the Japanese currency. However, after the reports about possible Chinese investment in Italy, the euro recovered. The yen has been the primary beneficiary of safe-haven flows after the Swiss National Bank took aggressive actions recently to weaken the Swiss franc. France Tuesday confirmed an earlier report that Greek, German and French leaders would hold a conference call on Wednesday.

  COMMODITIES

  Gold rose 1% on Tuesday as higher U.S. crude prices and an equities rebound prompted short-covering, reversing some of the previous session's sharp drop driven by margin-call selling in outside markets. The recent lack of safe-haven bids combined with elevated price volatility, and a bearish double-top technical reversal pattern prompted bullion investors to question the metal's outlook. Global stocks recovered on hopes of political support for Greece from Europe's top powers, and U.S. crude futures also gained. On Monday, gold briefly dipped below $1,800 an ounce as euro debt fears prompted investors to sell bullion to cover losses in equities. Gold closed at 1833 or up from at 1814 on Monday.

  Crude-oil futures rallied Tuesday, extending gains as stocks stabilized on a modest easing of worries about Europe and the International Energy Agency cut its estimates for global oil stockpiles. Crude-oil futures rallied Tuesday, extending gains as stocks stabilized on a modest easing of worries about Europe and the International Energy Agency cut its estimates for global oil stockpiles. Earlier Tuesday, the IEA issued its monthly outlook report in which it cut expectations for oil demand this year and the next, citing a deteriorating global economy. The agency also said oil from Libya will be slow to return to markets, but reported lowered oil stockpiles in developed nations and lowered expectations for some supplies. The IEA cut its forecast for supplies outside the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Stocks in countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development have fallen below their five-year average for the first time since 2008. Oil settled at 89.80 or up from 88.78 in Monday.
