The Financial Times remains Europe's best selling financial daily although its worldwide print circulation is only about one-fourth as large as The Wall Street Journal, which continues to dominate U.S. business journalism.

The FT reporters, Thorold Barker and Liam Denning, were assigned to the Journal?s newly beefed up Heard on the Street column.
