Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - August 05, 2015, Winnipeg, Manitoba C M Y K PAGE B7 S & P / T S X TSX VENTURE D O W J O N E S N A S D A Q C A N A D I A N S T O C K S FPMARKETS LOONIE LOSES GROUND 14,491.05 + 22.61 + 0.16% 589.88 - 4.43 - 0.75% 17,550.69 - 47.51 - 0.27% 5,105.55 - 9.83 - 0.19% B Y P E T E R H E N D E R S O N T O R O N T O . The Canadian dollar ended Tuesday at its lowest point since August 2004, closing more than half a cent from the previous session. The loonie closed at 75.87 cents US, down .58 cent of a U. S. cent from Friday's close. Canadian markets were closed on Monday. The S& P/ TSX composite index ended the day at 14,491.05, up 22.61 from Friday's close. Ian Nakamoto, director of research at 3Macs, said a lack of confidence in global growth has been weighing on stock markets around the world and dragging down the Canadian dollar. In New York, the Dow Jones industrial average closed down 47.51 points at 17,550.69, the Nasdaq index fell 9.84 points to 5,105.55 and the S& P 500 slipped 4.72 points to 2,093.32. Nakamoto said recent news reports focusing on volatility in the Chinese stock market and the Greek debt crisis ignore a more widespread sluggishness in the global market. " If the U. S. and Europe were very strong and China was doing the same thing, I don't think it would be nearly as bad for the commodities," he said.

SAVERS & INVESTORS REACH WE MORE 74% THE FREE PRESS IN PRINT OR ONLINE EACH WEEK READ A THENS, Greece - Greece's government conceded Tuesday dissent within the ruling party was likely to force an early election, while bank shares plummeted again on the stock market, which reopened this week after a long closure. The left- wing government is relying on oppositionparty support for approval in parliament of new austerity measures demanded by bailout lenders, following a revolt by nearly one- fourth of its own lawmakers. Government spokeswoman Olga Gerovasili said the government would not form a national unity government and described early elections as " likely." " A solution will be found, since the country needs a strong government," Gerovasili told private Skai television. "( Early) elections are likely but that doesn't mean we will be dealing today with when they will take place." Amid the uncertainty, the main stock index lost another 1.2 per cent Tuesday, the second day the market has been open following a five- week shutdown. Most shares traded higher but banks tumbled, once again hitting the 30 per cent lower trading limit. The overall index on Monday plummeted 16.2 per cent, its worst drop in decades. Greece's economy is reeling from the impact of limits on money withdrawals and transfers the government imposed on June 29 to avoid a collapse of the banking sector. Uncertainty over Greece's negotiations for a new bailout and over the stability of the government have heightened concerns. European markets were unaffected by the Greek market nosedive, however, which Italian Finance Minister Pier Carlo Padoan described as " normal market behaviour in exceptional circumstances." " Frankly I am not concerned. Looking at the figures, I thought this was more or less what one should expect after weeks of stocks being closed in a country which is indeed in deep recession," he told reporters in Rome. The political outlook appears tenuous, with Panagiotis Lafazanis, a prominent dissenter and lawmaker of the ruling Syriza party, urging colleagues to join him in voting against the government when the bailout deal is brought to parliament. " I personally will not vote for a new bailout that will continue to destroy the country and hurt its people," Lafazanis told Real FM radio. " Syriza lawmakers must fight to the last minute to stop the government signing a third bailout." Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos held new meetings Tuesday with bailout negotiators from the European Commission, European Central Bank and International Monetary Fund. - The Associated Press Snap election likely: Greek government No coalition seen as shares of banks get hammered By Derek Gatopoulos YORGOS KARAHALIS / THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Greece's main stock market declined 1.2 per cent Tuesday after a 16.2 per cent free fall Monday.
