Swiss vote to become first European nation to ban synthetic pesticides By Reuters

Posted by admin

in News

By John Revill ZURICH (Reuters) - Switzerland could become the first European country to ban artificial pesticides in a June 13 referendum which backers of the initiative hope will trigger similar prohibitions elsewhere. Globally, only Bhutan has a complete ban on synthetic pesticides, according to supporters aiming to outlaw the use of products made by agro-chemical giants such as Switzerland's Syngenta and Germany's Bayer (DE:BAYGN) and BASF. Supporters of the ban say the artificial products cause serious health problems and reduce biodiversity. Manufacturers say their pesticides are rigorously tested and regulated, can be used safely...

By Tom Westbrook SINGAPORE (Reuters) - The U.S. dollar began the week under gentle pressure, after a second consecutive month of softer-than-expected U.S. jobs data reversed its recent attempts at a rally, as focus shifted to inflation figures and a European Central Bank meeting. Friday jobs readout, which showed U.S. non-farm payrolls increasing by 559,000 in May, missed market expectations by nearly 90,000 and seemed to cool worries that the recovery was running hot enough to require early tapering of policy support. After the data, the dollar unwound a broad bounce, and on Monday it opened...

Posted by admin

in News

By Wayne Cole SYDNEY (Reuters) - Asian shares firmed on Monday while the dollar wavered after the anxiously awaited May U.S. payrolls report showed the recovery on track but not so hot that it might bring forward a policy tapering from the Federal Reserve. Investors were curious to see how shares of major tech firms would react to the G7's agreement on a minimum global corporate tax rate of at least 15%, though getting the approval of the whole G20 could be a tall order. So far, the reaction was muted with both Nasdaq and S&P...
