MIDEAST STOCKS-Saudi heads Gulf slump as Gaza clashes weigh - Yahoo! News Maktoob

A sharp sell-off dragged Saudi Arabia's index to a five-week low on Monday and most other Middle East markets also fell as Israel-Palestine clashes extended into a sixth day.
The kingdom's market dropped 1.9 percent to its lowest close since Oct. 14.
Israel bombed dozens of suspected militant sites in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip on Monday and Palestinians kept up their cross-border rocket fire as international pressure for a truce intensified.
