The second has lost more than 60 since the beginning of January

Cicadas sometimes triumph over the ants. Once ridiculed, American Airlines are the only ones today if not to fly over the crisis, at least not too much to burning wings. The international association of air transport, which has double the amount of losses ($4.7 billion) that it provides to its members in 2009, believes that Americans should remain profitable. In contrast, neither Asian nor European escape the turmoil affecting them, as shown in the underperformance of Air France. As Snoopy dragging its coverage, Europeans, and particularly AF - KLM, is covered too warmly against the increase in the price of oil and can now to disentangle. American cicadas which, in the absence of cash, were unable to provide these protections at the time, find themselves, they, as light as air to pass through and enjoy to full of fuel falling. Entered before the other in the eye of the cyclone, they also also preceded in the hunt for overcapacity. A change of course illustrated by upwelling swoop this week of the rating of Delta and American Airlines who returned to the fifth in a value it is true in free fall. The second has lost more than 60 since the beginning of January.

The bee of spring

When one swallow does not make spring, may be simply a bee. The activity of his famous rescue tugs only is certainly not worth to Bourbon to resist as well the most violent storm that have known the owners for a long time. If the former conglomerate of the Mascarene Islands were recorded last year a record operating income is through its decision eight years ago, to leave the sugar cane fields and rays supermarket into the offshore oil rigs service water. And if it is not now drowning in a barrel floating around 50 dollars, it should its clients, set up to 69 of super-majors, more likely to cut their dividends and their costs to trim on their investments, and 19 of often considered strategic national companies. Offshore, long-term contracts for 80 of its ships give an average visibility of almost two years. And, in maritime transport, investment in much more profitable bulk carriers own that Charter should offset the pitch prices in 70 drop in a year. All this is well worth a sea of oil on the stock exchange, where the title displays the highest growth ( 45.8) of the 120 first Parisian values since the beginning of the year.

Arts and crafts of fortune

If, as a Chinese proverb, the failure is mother of success, Kingfisher is poised in the people's Republic. Have dealt with peripheral way complications of too rapid growth in the Middle Kingdom has earned the British distributor of losses and provisions absorbing almost two-thirds of its annual operating income. The magnitude of the slippage is considerable for a country generating barely more than 4 of the turnover of the number one European arts and crafts, which had obviously not developed for genuine reflection on a market of about 30 billion euros only. The two years of restructuring to return to the green in China suggest that the proliferation of product lines nothing that 63 hinges for kitchen furniture , suppliers (1,600) and stocks (30 too high) is not the sole concern of the owner of Castorama and Brico Depot. Reassured by a strong debt, the City is too much rigour to the title which 38 beats the London Stock Exchange last year. Yet, with the ground lost British dependent profits for more than half of the French market, and from June, a Gallic non-Executive Chairman, the Kingdom of Kingfisher is decidedly more what it was.
