MIDEAST STOCKS-Markets extend losses after breaching psychological barriers | Reuters:
"Qatar and Dubai slipped through psychologically-important support levels and Abu Dhabi fell once more as crude oil prices continued to dampen investor sentiment towards Gulf markets.
Doha's index was hammered for a second day, dropping through the 10,000-point mark to trade down 1.6 percent. The benchmark hit a two-year low on Tuesday after both foreign and regional investors dumped stock, according to a Doha-based fund manager.
Brent oil was up slightly for the day at $40.67 at 0800 GMT, having falling below the $40 a barrel mark for the first time since the 2008-09 financial crisis on Tuesday."
