After being temporarily
suspended, shares in the troubled Monte dei Paschi di Siena
(MPS) bank plunged by 7.8% Friday to reach a fresh historic low
of 0.40 euros on the Milan bourse, stock exchange officials
said.
Sales in shares of the beleaguered Tuscan bank were
described as "violent" with as many as 60 million changing hands
within an hour.
The latest fall came after a 6% loss Thursday.
