US-based stock funds have $7.3 bln outflow-Lipper
April 25, 2013--April 25, 2013--Investors pulled $7.3 billion out of U.S.-based stock funds in the latest week, the most since
July of last year even as U.S. stock markets recovered from a sharp selloff, data from Thomson Reuters' Lipper Service showed on Thursday.
The big outflow was a result of investors pulling $8.4 billion out of stock exchange-traded funds in the week ended April 24, also the most since July of last year.
The outflows from stock funds follow seven straight weeks of cash gains into the funds. Those cash gains were largely driven by rallies in the U.S. stock market. The benchmark S&P 500 has risen over 11 percent this year as global stimulus measures from the U.S. Federal Reserve and European Central Bank have boosted markets.

April 25, 2013--The eighth World Economic Forum on Latin America concluded with a call for the region to build on its many economic successes and prepare for the future by focusing on education and social inclusion.

Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) Releases Third Annual Report
April 25, 2013--The Financial Stability Oversight Council (Council) today unanimously approved its 2013 annual report, which was developed collaboratively by the members of the Council and their agencies and staff.
Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the Council must report annually to Congress on a range of issues, including the activities of the Council, significant financial market and regulatory developments, and potential emerging threats to the financial stability of the United States. The report must also make recommendations to promote market discipline, maintain investor confidence, and enhance the integrity, efficiency, competitiveness, and stability of U.S. financial markets.
“Our work on financial reform is absolutely essential, as we work to modernize our regulatory framework and make our financial system more stable” said Treasury Secretary Jacob J. Lew. “Members of this Council continue to make a great deal of progress in building a more resilient financial system, and the Council’s annual report informs the public about actions we have taken over the past year, developments in the financial system during that time, and the challenges ahead.”
