FTSE-100 opened 5% down this morning, and at 3,870 was over 200 points lower than it was last week, before the Government unveiled its extraordinary "bail-out" package for the economy.
Formula One has become an unlikely casualty of the deepening economic gloom, with next year's French Grand Prix cancelled because its sponsors have decided they simply can't spare the cash anymore. I wonder how many other events and planned projects will falter because of corporations not having any money to lavish around. How reliant are the London Olympics on corporate backing?
