European
shares and the shared currency tumbled on Monday's trading session due to lack
of progress in negotiations over the new government in Italy and as the U.S. and
China's tighter property market measures brought worries about the world's economy
outlook. The Euro fell 0.1% to $1.2985, while the London's FTSE 100 index,
Paris's CAC-40 and Frankfurt's DAX lost around 0.5%.
