EUROPE SEEN TAKING A BREATHER (0513 GMT)

Stocks in Europe are expected to take a breather this morning after gaining 2.5% and recouping all of last week's losses over the past two trading sessions as worries about a global economic slowdown have eased.

MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.31%, while Japan's Nikkei rose 0.45%. The improved mood was helped by a rally on Wall Street overnight, with the S&P 500 gaining 1.21%.
