Brokerage group Jefferies cut its recommendation on UBS stock to "hold" from "buy", saying the acquisition of its former rival would change UBS' equity story, which was based on lower risk profile, organic growth focus and high capital returns.

"All these elements, which is what UBS shareholders bought into, are gone, likely for years," it said.

Why is the Government allowing London Mayor Sadiq Khan to destroy the London economy?


Almost 700,000 cars facing daily charges after Ulez expansion


RAC figure far higher than number of non-compliant cars Sadiq Khan’s office estimates will be captured by expanded Ulez zone

Nearly 700,000 cars face daily Ulez charges when the scheme is expanded, RAC data show – hitting thousands more drivers than Sadiq Khan, the London Mayor, had estimated.

The RAC found that 691,000 licensed cars in the whole of Greater London, including the expanded zone, were unlikely to meet the Ulez emissions standards.

The figure is far higher than the number of non-compliant cars the Mayor’s office estimates will be captured by the newly expanded Ulez zone.

According to traffic data, Mr Khan expects 160,000 non-compliant cars travelling in outer London. As of October last year, on average more than 50,000 non-compliant cars travelled in inner London every day.

While not all of the 691,000 cars registered in the zone will travel on every given day, the figure given by the RAC is still far higher than the 210,000 estimated by the Mayor’s office.

The Ulez zone will be expanded to cover all 32 London boroughs by the end of August. After that, drivers in outer London whose vehicles do not meet European emissions standards will have to pay £12.50 for every day they use their car within the London boundary.

"I think you have to lower rates. That's how you recapitalize the banks. I think they've done enough," says Barry Sternlicht. "The bond market is telling you what's going to happen. The bond market is right. Interest rates have to fall. The economy is going to implode."

Deutsche Bank shares tumble, default insurance cost shoots up


Deutsche Bank shares tumbled again today after the bank's credit default swaps that insure against default shot to a four-year high.

The latest highlight concerns among investors about the overall stability of Europe's banks.

European banks have had a rough ride in the last week with a state-backed rescue of Credit Suisse and turmoil among regional US banks fuelling concerns about the health of the global banking sector.

Deutsche shares, which have lost more than a fifth of their value so far this month, fell by as much as last 9.1% this morning to just shy of Monday's five-month lows.
