Germany\u2019s biggest bank fell 1.9 percent as people familiar with the matter said talks with the U.S. Justice Department to resolve a probe into mortgage-backed securities are continuing, after Germany\u2019s Bild newspaper reported that Chief Executive Officer John Cryan wasn\u2019t able to reach an agreement at a meeting in Washington. A measure of commodity producers posted the best performance of the 19 industry groups on the Stoxx Europe 600 Index as metals prices rose.<\/span><\/p>\n

The firm projects that the S&P 500 Index and the Stoxx 600 will each drop by about 2 percent by December. <\/span><\/p>\n
