The firm made a loss of 1.3bn dirhams ($350m; ￡215m) between April and June after it was forced to write off 1.73bn dirhams from its US homes division.

Emaar made a profit of 2.1bn dirhams in the same period last year.

Its home market of Dubai is also experiencing a slump in development as the global slowdown bites.

The company described the first half of the year as “extremely challenging”.

But it was US property interests - Emaar bought John Laing Homes in the US in 2006 - that hit the firm hardest.

“Due to continued slowdown in the US real estate market and chapter 7 [bankruptcy] proceedings relating to John Laing Homes, Emaar decided to write down its complete book value of JL Homes during the second quarter,” the company said.

Analysts said that the decision to draw a line under its US interests could be beneficial.

“I think investors will take the write-down positively as Emaar have decided to wash their hands of JL Homes completely and move on,” said Bobby Sarkar at Al Mal Capital.

Emaar is best known as the company developing Burj Dubai, the world’s tallest skyscraper, which is due for completion later this year.

Blaming the slow nature of the global economic recovery, Opec now expects demand for its crude to average 27.97 million barrels per day in 2010.

This is 480,000 barrels lower than its 2009 estimate and greater than the 380,000 fall it previously predicted.

US light crude ended down $1.15 a barrel to $69.45.

London Brent finished $1.04 lower at $72.46.

‘Price pressure’

Opec predicted global oil prices would fall further unless there was more indication that the world economy was improving.
“If market expectations for an economic recovery are not fully realised, current price levels could face increasing pressure,” it said.

Oil prices had risen earlier on Tuesday after figures showed record crude imports by China, the world’s second largest oil consumer. China’s oil imports rose by 42% in July to 4.62 million barrels per day.

Separately, the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) cut its 2009 oil demand forecast on Tuesday.

It now predicts global consumption will fall by an average 1.71 million barrels per day this year, compared with its previous estimate of a 1.56 million barrel decline.

“The oil market continues to be defined by the tension between optimism over the perceived recovery of the global economy on the one hand and persistently weak global consumption of crude oil and other liquid fuels on the other,” said the EIA.

It is already difficult to compete with BA at Heathrow, Steve Ridgway, chief executive of Virgin Atlantic, told the BBC.

“We don’t have plenty of slots, we have been at Heathrow now for almost 20 years and we still have less than 3% of slots at Heathrow, so we are still a minnow in that sense, ” said Mr Ridgway.
“You go there and you maybe see quite a few Virgin planes, but we are not able to compete effectively.

“We try very hard and I think we have done a very good job but if this is allowed to happen, if BA and American are allowed to come together, to put the sort of dominance they have on those key routes like New York and Boston and Miami and so on, then the regulators just need to be on their guard,” he added.

But in a statement, BA said that it was confident that regulators would agree and dismissed Sir Richard’s concerns.

“He wants the regulators to give the Virgin group anti-trust immunity to collaborate with another airline to fly across the Pacific, but claims it would be ‘anti-competitive’ for British Airways to be given the same approval for collaboration with another airline across the Atlantic,” it said.

The BA deal with American Airlines would offer customers greater choice, it said.

“Virgin Atlantic is concerned about the BA/AA deal because it feels it can’t compete,” said Saj Ahmad, an airline analyst.

“In fact, the US Govt has little grounds to stop this deal given the amount of previous alliances it has approved in the past.”

He added: “Also with the Open Skies pact in place, competition has gone up, not down. It is also ironic that Virgin continues to lobby against this deal given its silence on other, bigger deals that have previously been approved.”

Japan officially fell into recession last year and there was a dramatic fall in growth in the January-March period as the world economic slowdown hit Japanese exports hard.

Government stimulus measures totalling $260bn (￡159bn) helped to boost the economy, including cash handouts and subsidies to buy energy-efficient cars and home appliances, the BBC’s Roland Buerk in Tokyo says.

Manufacturers also benefited from recovering demand in China and other markets, with overall exports up 6.3% during the quarter.

But Japan could still face a long road to sustainable recovery, our correspondent says, with domestic private consumption rising only 0.8% despite the stimulus measures.

Seijiro Takeshita, director of Mizuho Financial, Japan’s second largest banking group, told the BBC that the Japanese economy was now staging a “true comeback”.

“We are definitely getting out of the excessive pessimism that we have been seeing… however, a lot of big questions remain, namely private consumption,” he said.

“We know this time it was good, but that was due to a lot of government stimulus spending.”
