UniCredit closes in on Commerzbank takeover
Unicredit, Italy's second biggest bank, is nearing a takeover of Germany's Commerzbank after securing 47.6% of its shares, though the move faces opposition from Germany's federal government, which holds a 12% stake. New 'freedom fuel' filling stations offering cheaper petrol are emerging in the United States with backing from the White House.
