The euro surged the most this year after European leaders eased terms on loans to Spanish banks, taking a step to resolve the region’s debt crisis. EU leaders met in Brussels yesterday and today to discuss measures to stem a debt crisis that’s spurred five euro members to seek international bailouts.

In Japan, government reports today showed the nation’s industrial production slid 3.1 percent in May from April, the biggest decline since March 2011, and consumer prices declined 0.1 percent last month.
