Uncertainty is reflected in the local top 10 list
PRESIDENT Obama's plan to revamp the US banking industry announced last week caused some uncertainty on the markets which has been reflected in the performance of the top 10 local listed companies.
Over the past seven days only two companies saw an increase in their share value, Burton-based pub company Punch Taverns and Somercotes chocolate-maker Thorntons.
Brewing giant Molson Coors and bankers Citigroup are both listed on the Dow Jones. Both saw their value fall after President Obama said last week that he was "ready for a fight" with banks.
