MORNING COFFEE


Eurozone To Speed Up Bank Aid To Spain. Yesterday Eurozone finance ministers announced they will speed up the €100B ($123B) in aid to Spain's banks, beginning with €30B to be lent by the end of July. Ministers also agreed to give Spain an additional year to put its budget deficit back in line. The aid to Spain’s banks will recapitalize them without adding to the Spanish governments’ debt.
