It is shaping up to be one of the worst weeks on record in the global financial markets.
The collapse of the US government's $700bn (£380bn) bail-out plan on Monday 29 September sparked massive falls in share prices around the globe.
The British Government's decision to nationalise former building society Bradford and Bingley, also announced on Monday, was only the first casualty of the week.
