			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> In an update of its economic growth forecasts published in Hong Kong Thursday, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to show more optimism for global economies, with the exception of France and Great Britain. The IMF has lowered its estimate of 0.1 growth in 2010 for both countries relative to expectations in April, until now +1.4% for France and 1.2% for Great Britain. Regarding the euro area, the IMF maintains its forecast for growth of 1%. Conversely, it has raised its projection for global growth in 2010 to 4.6% against 4.2% estimated in April. </p>
<p> The IMF draws attention to the financial sector, less and less stable, due to the rising public debt in many countries. It focuses on the risks as well, which &quot;have greatly increased&quot; since April.The international institution recognizes that &quot;progress toward global financial stability have recently suffered a setback. The risks on the public debt in some part of the eurozone have materialized and extended the financial sector in the region, threatening to spread to other regions and generate a downward spiral again winning the economy. &quot; </p>
<p> Reaction of central banks
<p> In this context, the IMF estimated that some central banks may have to ease these tensions further relaxing its monetary policy. They could be forced to inject new liquidity into the economy. The question is what will be the decisions of the European Central Bank and Bank of England, who must keep their monetary policy meetings in the day. Governments are also urged to take action to support the economy.The International Monetary Fund has renewed its request for implementation of &quot;emergency&quot; plans &quot;medium-term fiscal consolidation pro-growth&quot;. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The possibility of staff mothers of three children to retire at any age, provided they have completed fifteen years of service, will be removed by the pension reform. 15,000 women each year experience at a cost of several hundred million euros. The purpose of this feature &#8211; contested by Brussels sees discrimination against male officers &#8211; has barely stirred the objection of the unions. They recognize a hint that these rules &quot;natalist&quot; dating from 1924 are no longer justifiable. </p>
<p> However, the method of extinguishing device is controversial. Women fulfilling the criteria required before 1 January 2012 may still benefit. But the financial conditions will be much less favorable for all those who file their application from 13 July, the day of presentation of the bill in the Council of Ministers.Article 18 provides in effect that from that date, it is the rules of retirement for the year of birth of the mother who count, not those of the year it has fulfilled the two conditions family size and length of service. </p>
<p> Protective provisions </p>
<p> Specifically, &quot;So far, a woman born in 1962 and in 2002, had three children and fifteen years of service, could leave with the rules in force in 2002, before the reform Fillon said Brigitte Jumel (CFDT) . The amount of his pension was then strictly proportional to the number of years of contributions, divided by 37.5 years. If she filed her case on July 13 or after, these are the rules for the 1962 cohort will apply.Consider a calculation 41.25 annuities, with the reform announced last week, and especially a discount for all the missing years, as foreseen by the law Fillon. </p>
<p> The Secretary of State for Public Service does not deny these provisions but ensures that they are actually &quot;protective&quot;. It is in effect six months from the filing of the application for retirement and the first payment of pension. And what are the rules valid at the time of liquidation, not when the application is submitted, that apply. That explains the entourage of the Secretary of State George Tron, without this clause &quot;of 13 July,&quot; an official who filed his case last May, to go in November &#8211; a period when the law on pensions should be entered into force &#8211; would have been applied to the methods of calculation less favorable.It is therefore intended, provides the government to &quot;cover&quot; all mothers who wish to leave by the end of the year. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Provide access to fiber optics to every home by 2025. A project championed by Nicolas Sarzkoy in February, which would cost 30 billion euros. If the Secretary of State for the Digital Economy, Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, announced Wednesday at the fourth &quot;Focus on the high speed&quot; it had mobilized in 2011, about 7 billion euros over four or five years, it is far short.Recall that the need for public funding is in a range of 8 to 10 billion euros in five years. </p>
<p> Even with two billion euros loan from the general and the possible contribution of European funds for &quot;a hundred million a year,&quot; the senator from Eure Hervé Maurey, to prepare a report on the financing of high Speed &#8211; the first version will be given to the Prime Minister during June &#8211; ruled yesterday that it will be difficult to escape a new tax, either on business or on consumers. </p>
<p> &quot;We must find a tax with the broadest possible base for the rate is as low as possible,&quot; he argued. </p>
<p> Traders feel targeted by the tax </p>
<p> This ad is not to please operators, already cooled by the tax on broadcasting.At the outset, the secretary general of France Telecom, Pierre Louette has stepped into the breach at the meeting, suspecting that those &quot;on which the tax will fall are always the same.&quot; </p>
<p> As for the alternative operators, represented by the assocaition Aforst, representatives denounced a measure that not n&#39;impulserait development project, contrary to claims Hervé Maurey. This is not by reducing &quot;the ability of investment&quot; is encouraged operators operators, says the group. </p>
<p> In March, Martin Bouygues, head of the eponymous group, has raised its voice against the accumulation of taxes and regulation in general in the area.Its subsidiaries Bouygues Telecom and TF1 suffer, he said during the presentation of its 2009 results. </p>
<p> 2 million households connected in 2011 </p>
<p> According to Arcep, 80,000 French households currently subscribe to the optical fiber while 800,000 are connected to this technology that provides access to the Internet so much faster than ADSL. </p>
<p> Arcep expects more than two million households in France connected to the optical fiber in the summer of 2011. </p>
<p> Free starting to invest with France Telecom </p>
<p> In an interview with Le Figaro on June 2 last, Maxime Lombardini, the CEO of Free, said that France has a competitive environment for Internet broadband. </p>
<p> He said &quot;France is ahead&quot; in technology.&quot;France is at the forefront in Europe, thanks to a very successful framework that enables rapid deployment of fiber networks without digging sidewalks and minimizing interference in the condominium through pooling. &quot; </p>
<p> Note that operators will invest together in the optical fiber. France Telecom has also launched an appeal to its competitors. Free has responded. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Two years after being sold by HSBC Group Banque Populaire, Société Marseillaise de Credit (SMC) might again change hands. The daily La Tribune, the CMS would be on the verge of being sold to Societe Generale. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> The European Central Bank (ECB) has revised upwards on Thursday the euro zone growth for 2010, but reduced its estimates for 2011. This year, says the guardian of the euro, growth should be between 0.7% and 1.3%, against 0.4% and 1.2% previously. Exports should benefit the business area, &quot;said ECB president Jean-Claude Trichet. </p>
<p> In contrast, growth should be adversely affected by weaker domestic demand in 2011 than originally planned. The ECB now expects growth understood in a very wide range from 0.2% to 2.2%, against 0.5% to 2.5% previously estimated. Probably the negative effect of harsh announced plans in recent days, including Germany and Spain.In this context, inflation is likely to remain &quot;moderate&quot;, said Jean-Claude Trichet. </p>
<p> &quot;We believe that the euro zone economy would grow at a moderate pace in an environment (&#8230;) unusually high uncertainty&quot;, said Jean-Claude Trichet. &quot;The uncertainty and the level of growth is not writing, it also depends on us&quot;, European institutions and governments, stressed the central banker <a href="http://pay-day-loans-4all.com">faxless pay day loans</a><!-- . -->. The ECB &quot;endeavors to be an anchor, an island of confidence.&quot; </p>
<p> The euro, &quot;very credible&quot; </p>
<p> The ECB president also did not comment on the fall of the euro seen in recent weeks. The single currency, he hammered a currency is &quot;very credible&quot;.He did not give further details regarding the buyback of government bonds in place last May in order to guarantee liquidity in a market completely frozen. The ECB has bought for 16.5 billion euros of bonds the first week, 10 billion for the second week, then 5.5 billion for the third, said only Jean-Claude Trichet. </p>
<p> The ECB president was pressed with questions about this decision heterodox. Done rare, Axel Weber, the German member of the Governing Council of the ECB, it is even publicly opposed. Jean-Claude Trichet reiterated that there was &quot;a currency, a central bank, a board of governors,&quot; and therefore &quot;a decision and an explanation for this decision&quot; . </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Almost 9% increase! Half an hour after the opening of the Paris Stock Exchange on Thursday, Valeo posted the strongest increase in the SRD: 8.77% to 23.81 euros in a market up 2.2%. The carmaker brings with it its main competitor Faurecia climbed 6.53% to 13.13 euros. </p>
<p> This remarkable evolution follows the statement released Wednesday by Valeo, in which the group calls itself &quot;confident&quot; in achieving its goal of doubling its operating margin compared to 2009, notified on 24 February. The group is therefore an operating margin of almost 4% of its turnover in 2009 against 1.8% and 2.7% in 2008.Just in the first half, Valeo anticipates an operating margin approaching 6%, the highest rate on a semester during the last eight years. </p>
<p> Nomura to buy rest </p>
<p> The supplier table, moreover, still for the first half of 2010, on a turnover of around 4.7 billion euros, an increase of about 35% compared to the first half of 2009. Consensus Thomson Reuters, meanwhile, put on a turnover of 8.2 billion euros for the group in 2010 with an operating profit of 301 million, which would result in a margin of 3.67%. </p>
<p> This perspective reinforces the analysts at Nomura, in their recommendation to purchase the title. They said the current valuation of Valeo offers significant upside potential and thus provides a good buying opportunity. Nomura sets the price target to 35 euros. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> For three months, Nestle tries the impossible in France. In a market of bottled water down the last ten years, the world number one is preparing to launch a new brand. And not just any, as this is the introduction in France of Pure Life, world&#39;s leading brand of bottled water. </p>
<p> &quot;There is a French project that builds on the success of Nestle Pure Life,&quot; said Le Figaro Hubert Genieys, communications director of Nestlé Waters. The group is &quot;by the summer&quot; to make a decision. The weather also seal the fate of Aquarel spring water to Nestle family launched in 2000 with sales in France have not taken off.And that could eventually be replaced by the French version of Pure Life Pure Life. </p>
<p> Nestle Pure Life is tested in twenty supermarkets size of Le Mans and Angers, the two largest test markets in Europe, as announced last month our colleague Ray beverage. The test should be completed in the coming days, once the remaining stocks sold. &quot;The book starts slowly,&quot; says Jean-Marc Renaudin, head of the radius drinks Leclerc Angers. &quot;It&#39;s a grain of sand against a mountain!&quot; He adds, referring to sales of Cristaline: the market leader &#8211; sold € 1.02 pack of six 1.5 liter bottles &#8211; sells 25 30 pallets per week (2800-3360 packs), while Pure Life, which costs twice as much, capped at half a pallet (32 packs) &#8230; In times of promotions (- 50%), however, sales may go up to four half-pallets in a weekend.In Intermarché of Le Mans, the permanent discount on Pure Life (1.02 euro) cut the lead in sales (which reads from one to ten) with Cristaline. </p>
<p> The linear congested </p>
<p> &quot;It is completely below the cost price, these prices will not last long!&quot; Fumed Peter Papillaud majority shareholder group Alma (Cristaline Vichy Celestine, St Yorre, etc..), Which gives the winning Figaro 0.33 euro per bottle, without promotion or communication, through reduced shipping costs to a minimum. Since he has seen at Le Mans last month, the posters of Pure Life, Peter Papillaud still furious. He campaigned against Nestlé with its distributor customers.Until patterns of signs to which he recalls that they allowed, with Cristaline, &quot;not to lose money on the waters first prize.&quot; </p>
<p> The placement price of one Pure Life is strangely reminiscent of Aquarel (2.95 euros per pack of 6), a time sponsor of the Tour de France, with which Nestlé wanted to become a leader in Europe. Number two in Spain, and number three in Hungary, Aquarel never exceeded 1.5% market share in France. In several large areas of Le Mans and Angers, it has already disappeared from the shelves for almost a year. &quot;In France, in a particularly unfavorable brand now boasts good performances, however, below our expectations,&quot; said Hubert Genieys.&quot;Aquarel suffered a mid-range position, caught between an actor unbeatable pricing and what Cristaline mineral water like Evian, Volvic and Vittel that provide reinsurance, analysis Bernard Malik, a partner the firm Roland Berger. </p>
<p> This does not Nestle to think big. He hopes to replicate the success story in France Pure Life number one in the United States, Egypt and Jordan, number three in Turkey and Shanghai. His recipe: low price, strong networking planning and adaptability to local consumption patterns. Launched in 1998 in Pakistan, the water present in 28 countries is natural in France, addressed to the U.S., desalinated in the Middle East, remineralized in some countries. For five years, she has an annual growth of 24%, but its presence in northern Europe is limited to Great Britain and Germany.Nestle&#39;s dream to find a recipe for anti-crisis on the French market. </p>
