Nervous stock exchange deep in the red

The Amsterdam blue chip AEX index was deep in the red on Tuesday, in line with other European stock exchanges following concerns about the euro and the nationalisation of a Spanish bank.


By 3.30pm, the AEX was hovering around 303 points. ING was the big loser, shedding as much as 7.5%, while insurance group Aegon was down 5.4% in early trading.
