percent, matching estimates, and that it expects unit volume sales to
surge 25 percent in the second quarter, well ahead of industry growth
rates. The Swiss government slashed its economic growth forecast on Friday
to zero in 2003 from the 0.8 percent it had expected in January.
Allianz AG confirmed on Friday it suffered a
worse-than-expected net loss of 520 million euros against analysts
expectations of a 220 million euros loss.Hilton Hotels
Group said on Friday that profits fell 25%
in the first four months of 2003, but that it was on course to meet market
expectations for the full year. The firm said difficult trading in its

Ladbrokes betting shops. Intercontinental
