Airbus finally delivers first A380 superjumbo

TOULOUSE, France - Airbus finally delivered its first A380 superjumbo jet Monday - a critical step for the European planemaker in its efforts to rebound from a string of troubles.

Singapore Airlines took delivery of the double-decker jet, the world's largest passenger plane, almost two years late.

He thanked customers for sticking with the aircraft and said that increasing production to meet demand for the A380 "remains our greatest challenge for the next few years."

After hesitating last week before another milestone, the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index today broke 6,000 points, in time with this morning's opening session of the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

The index, having for the first time surpassed the 5,500-point mark the day prior to the week-long national holiday, gained another 500 points in just six trading days beginning October 8.

Total turnover of the stocks in the major indices was 268.9 billion yuan, the second largest since the holiday after last Friday's 308.8 billion yuan.

One week ago I left Shanghai behind and my wife and I began our annual migration back to our summer stomping grounds, the Pacific Northwest.

Chinese bank staff can scarcely catch a breath these days as customers come crowding into agencies all over the country to withdraw their savings.

But depositors are not making a run on the banks. They just can't wait to invest in stocks, investment funds and other wealth management products in the hope of making a killing on the bullish market.
