International stocks trading in New York closed were mixed on
Thursday.
The BNY Mellon index of American depositary receipts was flat at
120.66. The European index eased by 0.03% to 119.01, the Asian
index edged down 0.25% to 128.60, the Latin American index rose

Oi SA (OIBR, OIBRC, OIBR4.BR) was among the companies with ADRs
that traded actively.
Debt-laden Brazilian telecommunication company Oi said it had
hired U.S.-based PJT Partners Inc. (PJT) as a financial adviser,
weeks after a planned capital injection was called off. Oi hired
PJT Partners to evaluate "financial and strategic alternatives to
optimize its liquidity and debt profile," the Brazilian company
said. ADRs fell 9.5% to $1.52.
Cemex SAB (CX, CEMEX.MX) said Thursday it has reached an
agreement to sell its operations in Bangladesh and Thailand for $53
million, a small part of its planned asset sales of up to $1.5
billion in the next two years. The Mexican company, among the
world's largest cement makers, expects to use most of the proceeds
to pay down debt. ADRs rose four cents to $6.12.
Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA, RDSA.LN) Chief Executive Ben van
Beurden took an 8% pay cut in 2015, with his direct compensation
dropping to 5.1 million euros ($5.61 million) after a historic
oil-price slump sliced the company's profits. ADRs fell 1.9% to
$47.33.
