NEW YORK, June 15 (Reuters) - Stocks and the euro fell on Wednesday and safe-haven government bonds rose as divisions between euro zone officials over a new aid plan for debt-laden Greece curbed demand for risky assets.
In the United States, weaker-than-expected manufacturing data renewed worries over slowing growth, while figures that signaled the biggest rise in core consumer prices in nearly three years caused some to reconsider how long inflation pressure will remain tame in the absence of policy tightening from the Federal Reserve.

Anxiety over the Greek debt crisis and disappointing U.S. data put downward pressure on global equity markets.
The MSCI world stock index <.MIWD00000PUS> was down 0.7 percent after posting its biggest single-day percentage rise on Tuesday due to less grim Chinese and U.S. economic data.
Wall Street opened 0.9 percent lower, while top European stocks <.FTEU3> fell 1.0 percent.
Tokyo's Nikkei <.N225> ended 0.3 percent lower following Tuesday's rally in New York.
Striking Greeks raged against a new wave of austerity after euro zone finance ministers failed to agree how to make private creditors contribute to a second bailout for their indebted country. This shifted the onus onto the leaders of Germany and France to forge a deal later this week.
Selling pressure on the euro also increased after Moody's put BNP Paribas, Credit Agricole and Societe Generale on review for a possible downgrade, citing the French banks' holdings of Greek public and private debt.
