| Car bomb explodes outside Greek central bank building, no one hurt |
|
 By Karolina Tagaris and Renee Maltezou ATHENS (Reuters) - A car bomb exploded outside a central bank building in Athens early on Thursday, smashing windows but causing no injuries, just hours before Greece was due to make its first foray into the international bond markets in four years. The dawn blast, which police believe was carried out by leftist or anarchist guerrilla groups, also came a day before a planned visit to Athens by German Chancellor Angela Merkel. An anonymous caller warned a newspaper about 45 minutes before the explosion just before 6 a.m. (0300 GMT), saying it contained about 70 kg (155 pounds) of explosives, a police official said on condition of anonymity. Witnesses saw debris strewn across the street in one of the busiest parts of central Athens that is lined with banks, shops and a mall.

| Indonesia's surprise election result unsettles investors |
|
 By Jonathan Thatcher JAKARTA (Reuters) - An unexpectedly weak election result for the party behind the frontrunner to be Indonesia's next president hurt stocks and the currency on Thursday, with concern Southeast Asia's biggest economy could be heading into a period of political confusion. Early returns from Wednesday's parliamentary election show that the Indonesian Democratic Party-Struggle (PDI-P) will have no choice but to cut a deal with other parties to nominate its hugely popular candidate for president in a July 9 poll. Investor enthusiasm for Indonesia had been on the rise on the belief that Jakarta governor Joko Widodo might even win enough votes to avoid having to go to a run-off in three months time. "At the very least, expectations on the duration of the presidential election is likely to move from one to two rounds, which increases the period of uncertainty," Trimegah Securities wrote in a research note.
