阿联酋股市连续第二天下挫 (UAE Markets Plunge for Second Day)
迪拜和阿拉伯联合酋长国的股市星期二继续下挫，原因是投资人担心国有发展企业迪拜世界公司无力偿还590亿美元的债务。迪拜和阿布达比股市在星期二的早盘交易中都下跌了超过5%。星期一，卡达尔股市自为期四天的宰牲节结束以来第一天开盘下跌超过8%。
迪拜酋长谢赫.穆罕默德.本.拉希德星期二告诉阿拉比亚电视台，全世界不了解政府重组迪拜的计划。迪拜世界公司的官员说，该集团将调整其子公司260亿美元的债务，以减轻各界对该公司拖欠债务的担心。迪拜世界公司星期一晚上发布声明说，该公司正在进行一项重组计划，计划包括子公司迪拜棕榈岛集团和无界公司，这两家公司都属于房地产开发公司。
