Losses on stock markets have continued after the collapse of fourth largest US investment bank, Lehman Brothers, which has filed for bankruptcy protection.
European stocks fell again; the UK's FTSE 100 was down 2.44%, France's Cac down 1% and Germany's Dax down 1.58%.
Shares in Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong fell more than 5%, having been shut on Monday for public holidays.
