Greece’s ASE Composite index closed at the lowest level since November 1992 on political concerns in the country. The index fell 3.6% at 620.54, after tumbling nearly 7% yesterday following elections. |
U.S. home prices edged up 0.6% in March, the first monthly rise since July 2011, according to CoreLogic. Excluding distressed sales, month-over-month prices increased for the third month in a row. |
