Greece talks on austerity fail after eight hours
Greece's coalition leaders fail to reach consensus with the troika on pension and state cuts needed to meet the 2012 fiscal target. Prime Minister Papademos, Finance Minister Venizelos, and Labor Minister Koutroumanis negotiate while opposition leaders press for changes. The $172 billion bailout hangs on narrowing a $397 million gap in planned cuts.

Sprint posts deeper loss after iPhone rollout
Sprint Nextel reports its largest quarterly loss in three years as it bets on iPhone sales to boost growth. The carrier spent heavily to offer iPhones, buying devices from Apple for about 600 dollars and selling them subsidized. Despite 1.8 million iPhones activated in the quarter and 161,000 net subscribers added, the move widened the loss by 630 million dollars.
