World Markets Continue Financial Fears

World markets sold off Friday, a day after the Dow industrials had its worst point loss since the 2008 financial crisis. The Dow tumbled 512 points Thursday -- its ninth deepest point drop ever -- as fear about the global economy spooked investors. The selling spilled into overseas markets early Friday. Japan's Nikkei (N225) closed down 3.72%, while Australia's All Ordinaries (XAO) slid more than 4%.
