Global markets fell as worries about the recession continued: Tokyo's Nikkei fell more than 9%, closing under 8,000 for the first time since April 2003 and European markets fell after the official news that the "British economy shrank more than expected and for the first time in 16 years." The Dow Jones and S&P 500 futures trading were "limited to prevent contracts from further declines after drops of more than 6 percent." Both will open for trading later, though.
