Two technology firms test US equity market this week

The US new issue market is struggling to relaunch itself after Tellium, a US technology firm, cut the size and price of its initial public offering on Wednesday, the day before Loudcloud, an internet services company, braves the new issue market with a $180m (€193.7m) deal.

The success or otherwise of technology deals in the US could have a significant impact on the potential recovery in the European technology market.
