Announcements should be expected this morning about more knock-on effects to corporations from S&P's decision to downgrade the United States' credit rating, the head of Standard & Poor's sovereign ratings said on Monday.


David Beers also told Reuters Insider television that the US outlook could be raised to stable if the US deficit-cutting deal is fully implemented and the Obama administration ends the Bush tax cuts.
