Wall Street tumbles as BNP Paribas freezes subprime funds
Stocks slid sharply as a BNP Paribas move to freeze three funds tied to U.S. subprime mortgages heightened credit crisis fears. The ECB injection and Fed reserves failed to calm markets as Dow fell 387 points to 13,270 amid renewed bets on rate cuts. S&P dropped 44.40 to 1,453.09 and Nasdaq lost 56.49 to 2,506.49 as investors sought Treasurys.
