Rivals rallied around Lehman Brothers as rumours of a "fire sale" swirled around the market, forcing the bank's shares to eight-year lows. In the face of continued speculation that Lehman chairman Dick Fuld is negotiating a below-asset sale to any number of potential suitors, leading analysts at rival banks, including Morgan Stanley, supported Lehman's shares by arguing that such a sale was unlikely.

A supply crunch and mounting fears of an Israeli air strike on Iran propelled oil to $143 a barrel at one stage yesterday, prompting warnings from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) of a severe economic crisis in poorer regions. "Some countries are at a tipping point," said Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the IMF's managing-director. "If food prices rise further and oil prices stay the same, some governments will no longer be able to feed their people."

LONDON (Thomson IM) - UK bank Barclays Plc. has attracted a large spike in interest from short sellers in the wake of its 4.5 billion pounds cash call, according to figures from Data Explorers.
Analysts said the shorting looked like a 'bear contingent' in the market betting that further writedowns or capital raising would follow.
Data Explorers' assessment shows that some 9.54 percent of Barclays stock was out on loan as of the close of business on Friday, representing a sharp climb from between 6 percent and 7 percent before the announcement.
