(Bloomberg) -- Stocks in Europe and Asia fell,
following a drop in the U.S. last week, as concern mounted that
losses in the U.S. mortgage market will erode economic growth and
raise financing costs for companies.
UBS AG and BNP Paribas SA led a decline by financial shares
in Europe, while Macquarie Bank Ltd. and Mizuho Financial Group
Inc. paced falling shares in Asia. Royal Philips Electronics NV
and Lafarge SA decreased as the dollar traded near a record low
against the euro. BHP Billiton Ltd. and Rio Tinto Group declined
after copper fell in Shanghai.
