BUZZ-Man Group: worst day in 6 months on rising staff costs

** Man Group (LSE: EMG.L - news) falls 5 pct after the asset manager reports higher-than-expected staff costs

** Total (Other OTC: TTFNF - news) compensation rises to $462 mln from $394 mln, making up 43 pct of net revenues (2014: 36 pct)

** Co says acquisitions of Silvermine and NewSmith, as well as weaker GBPUSD to blame for higher costs

** Broker with a "buy" rating on the stock says rising costs, as well as seed capital losses, likely to weigh on shares in the short-term

** Worst day for stock since early-Sept

** Rest of results broadly in-line
