NYSE Euronext swings into loss
NYSE Euronext, the transatlantic exchange, swung into a second quarter loss after absorbing a one-time charge, mostly made up of a $355m payment to LCH.Clearnet for breaking a contract as the US group moved to set up its own London-based clearer.
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services said Tuesday that it lowered its outlook on NYSE Euronext to ``Negative'' from ``Stable'' after the company announced a $1 billion stock buyback program and increased its dividend.
