Market falls as investors cash in

AFTER two days of gains the Irish market reverted to type yesterday, recording a slight loss as investors took profits and the banks weakened. The ISEQ index fell 13.47 points to 2,661.76.

Another turbulent day played out for Anglo-Irish Bank as the share lost over 20% of its value or 10c to close at 33c, with almost 10 million shares traded on the Irish market.
