Greece has asked for a 60-billion-dollar international aid package to be activated 1. Greece had hoped that just the promise of EU support, agreed to last month, would've been enough to reassure 2 markets and help the economy recover. But Greece's problems have continued to hit investor 3 confidence in the euro and other European economies. And Prime Minister George Papandreou says it's time for the eurozone to act.


 


To the markets, and Wall Street closed at a 19-month high on the back of health care and energy stocks. The Dow closed 70 points stronger and the NASDAQ put on 11. It was a strong day in Europe too. The FTSE gained 1 percent and Germany's DAX shot up nearly one and a half.


 


And checking currencies, the Australian dollar's buying 92.8 US cents and 60 British pence.


 


Melbourne Storm management says it'll ask owner News Limited to help rescue it from its new-found financial woes 4. The Storm have to pay more than one and a half million dollars to the NRL due to its major salary cap breaches 5. On top of that sponsors ME Bank and HOSTPLUS have withdrawn 6 their support. Accountancy firm Deloitte will shortly begin a forensic 7 investigation 8 of the club's finances.


 


And that's the latest ABC Business News.
