Euro stabilises after short-covering rally

Chinese dissident artist Ai Weiwei poses at home in Beijing, China, Tuesday, Nov. 8, 2011. Ai, an internationally acclaimed conceptual artist, was detained for nearly three months earlier this year amid an overall crackdown on dissent, setting off concern well beyond the arts circles and civil rights community in which he is well known. The detention and subsequent claims of tax evasion have been interpreted by activists as a way to punish him for his often-outspoken criticism of the authoritarian government. (AP Photo/Ng Han Guan)
