Banking, airline and property shares plunge in London

London (AFP) – Shares in banks, airlines and property companies plunged on the London stock exchange Monday as investors singled out the three sectors as being the most vulnerable to Britain’s decision to leave the EU.

EasyJet stock fell 16 percent after the company issuing a profit warning, while Royal Bank of Scotland shares plunged 15 percent, vastly underperforming the overall key FTSE 100 index, which was down 1.4 percent at 0845 GMT.
