Dubai's stock market has fallen for the second

consecutive day on continuing fears about

leading companies' ability to repay debts.

The main Dubai Financial Market index fell 6.1%,

after closing down almost 6% on Monday.

Two weeks ago, Dubai World asked for a six-month

delay on debt repayments. Credit agencies have

since downgraded many leading Dubai companies.

On Tuesday, credit agency Moody's downgraded six

state-owned companies.

Last week, Standard amp; Poor's cut the ratings of four

Dubai-based banks, having previously downgraded

six companies to junk status. Junk is the term

commonly used to describe bonds that are rated

below investment grade by ratings agencies.

The Dubai index has now fallen by more than 20%

since Dubai World's debt extension request.

Tuesday's plunge was led by real estate developer

Emaar Projects, which fell by 9.8%.

Dubai World has some valuable assets, notably its

ports business, which includes operations based at

London's Tilbury Docks and France's Le Havre.

Other items in its wide-ranging investment portfolio

include the luxury retailer Barney's of New York, a list

of high-end US hotels, and the Canadian acrobatic

circus franchise, Cirque du Soleil.
