After a strong lead in from Wall St, the major index started the day in the green before a slide began mid-morning, that ultimately saw it close down 0.36%. Industrials and materials were the only sectors to finish in positive territory with tech, communications leading the losers. Consumer discretionary was also down heavily after Morgan Stanley said it had become more wary about the sector.

It is in the process of exiting positions after failing to meet margin calls. Our top three VODs today are:
