 Good morning everyone. The world's two biggest bear makers 1 are said to merge 2 in one of the largest takeover deals in the world. South African brewer 3 SAB Millers 4 has accepted a 145 billion dollar takeover offer from Belgium's Anheuser-Busch. SAB Millers owns brands of just B and Carlton draught 5, while Anheuser-Busch is the owner of Budweiser and Corona 6. The deal means that a combined company would sell one at every three beers drunk around the world. And thus the deal needs to be carefully reviewed by regulators require for approval.

And a fall overnight over worries about slowing growth in China. The Dow closed down 50 points or 0.3%, the Nasdaq fell 0.2%, while the S&P 500 was down 0.7%. In London the FTSE finished down 0.5%.
