Hypo Venture Capital Headlines:Euro Weakens Versus Dollar on Sovereign-Debt Concern; Kiwi Touches Record By Chris Fournier and Ron Harui http://www. bloomberg. com/news/2011-05-29/euro-falls-from-2-week-high-on-debt-concerns. html The euro fell for the first time in three days against the dollar on concern the currency region will struggle to contain its sovereign-debt crisis. The currency slid versus most of its major counterparts after Greece’s Prime Minister George Papandreou said last week in Athens that he will press ahead with additional austerity measures after failing to win backing from opposition parties. New Zealand’s dollar dropped after surging today to its highest level since exchange-rate controls ended in 1985 as the nation’s trade surplus widened to a record in April. “Until we get resolution, some clarity on what’s going on, the market is not going to have the confidence to take the euro higher,” said David Watt, senior currency strategist at Royal Bank of Canada’s

Hypo Venture Capital Zurich Headlines: LinkedIn looks for $32 to $35 per share in IPO http://www. contracostatimes. com/business/ci_18027408?nclick_check=1 Posted: 05/09/2011 04:08:41 PM PDT NEW YORK — Professional networking website LinkedIn hopes to sell its stock for $32 to $35 per share in an upcoming initial public offering. Its IPO may encourage other growing Internet services to make their stock market debuts during the next year. The price target, set in a filing Monday with the Securities and Exchange Commission, signals that LinkedIn is nearly ready to complete its IPO. The shares are expected to be sold May 18, according to IPO analyst Scott Sweet. The stock would then begin trading under the ticker symbol of “LNKD” on the New York Stock Exchange. The company’s debut could offer a preview of investor demand for other popular online services that connect people with common interests. Although they haven’t set timetables, Facebook, Twitter, the online deals site Groupon

Hypo Venture Capital Zurich Headlines: Zynga reportedly preparing public offering of stock Alex Pham http://latimesblogs. latimes. com/entertainmentnewsbuzz/2011/05/zynga-reportedly-preparing-publicoffering-of-stock. html Zynga, the San Francisco developer of social games such as Mafia Wars and FarmVille, is preparing to file an initial public offering of stock this week or next, according to the Wall Street Journal’s All Things D blog. Zynga’s last round of funding valued the company at $10 billion. But a stock offering could allow Zynga to harvest a substantially higher valuation, according to All Things D, citing anonymous sources. Other technology IPOs have done well this year. Demand Media in January enjoyed a 33% pop in share price on its first day of trading. Shares of LinkedIn, a social network aimed at executives and job seekers, soared 109% on its first day of trading last week, giving the Bay Area company an eye-popping $9-billion valuation.

He has stressed that “a world which is failing to respond to climate change is one in which the values embodied in the United Nations will not be met”. Indeed, the UN Charter makes clear that a central purpose of that organisation is to “achieve international cooperation in solving international problems of an economic, social, cultural or humanitarian character”. Climate change is just such a problem — and its impacts and costs fall disproportionately on developing countries. This is deeply unfair. So it was only right that in Cancun last December, the 16th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change reaffirmed the commitment from developed countries in Copenhagen in December 2009 to jointly mobilise US$100 billio

Hypo Venture Capital Zurich Headlines: Surprise boost to retail sales unlikely to hold By: Esther Armstrong http://www. iii. co. uk/articles/15519/cautious-response-retail-sales-dents-pound UK retail sales spiked in April after weaker data the month before, but experts warned it was likely a temporary boost due to a later Easter, warmer weather and the “royal wedding effect”. Food and clothing sales led to a 1. 1% jump in sales volumes, which represented a 2. 8% increase year-on-year. But experts said last month’s bounce on the high street was aided by what the Office for National Statistics (ONS) termed “unusual events” and would likely peter off next month. Howard Archer, chief European and UK economist at IHS Global Insight, said: “While welcome, we strongly doubt that the 1. 1% jump in retail sales volumes in April is a sign that the consumer is roaring back to life. Rather, what it suggests is that pressurised customers need a particularly favourable set of circumstances to pa
