FTSE 100 reacts to Brexit worries

The FTSE took it's largest daily tumble since February this week in reaction to the surge of support polled for the Leave camp in the EU referendum debate. With the vote due to take place on Thursday next week, the markets are bracing themselves for what the majority of business leaders see as the negative prospect of a Brexit.

The 388 point drop, equating to 100 billion pounds of company value, has since been recovered to above the six thousand mark but the message is clear - big business is not savouring the prospect of a UK exit from the European Union.
