"I think we're going to have a different recovery shape in Western Europe, central Europe and Eastern Europe," said Wayne Brannon, head of General Motors Co.'s Chevrolet brand in Europe. "A lot of people are telling me that Western Europe is turning the corner. I expect we'll have solid U-shaped growth." Many other... Full article...

China took its case to the World Trade Organization Monday, after Obama ordered additional U.S. tariffs on Chinese tires for three years, including 35 percent in the first year. The increases come on top of the current 4 percent tariff. Besides challenging the tire tariffs before the WTO, the Chinese government said it would investigate on its own to... Full article...
