The item "Daimler Downbeat on Latin America, Optimistic on India -- Market Talk", at 1136 GMT, incorrectly referred to Daimler's chief financial officer Bodo Uebber. It should have been Daimler's head of trucks, Wolfgang Bernhard.

German auto maker Daimler assumes that the "economic weakness in Latin America will last for a long time," says Daimler's head of trucks, Wolfgang Bernhard, during a conference call to discuss second quarter results. But the firm believes the new government in India will use its strong majority to implement economic reforms that could help stabilize the economy and benefit Daimler's truck business. "The benefit for Daimler trucks from a recovery of the Indian economy will be disproportionately higher," says Mr. Bernhard. (william.boston@wsj.com)
