Tel Aviv stocks plummeting
A precipitous slide on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange is continuing, with the benchmark TA-35 index down 5.3 percent on the day, falling below 1,200 points for the first time since 2013.
The TA-125 index is down 5.7%.
The slumps continue a week of wild swings after Tuesday saw slight gains on the exchange and around the world.
