TABUK, 3 November 2006 — A man lost consciousness at a local stock exchange lounge in synchrony with the rapidly falling price of a particular stock that the man had invested in, the Al-Madinah newspaper reported yesterday. The man was watching a screen when, in mounting panic, he noticed his stocks falling by 10,000 points. People gathered around the man to revive him but to no avail. The man was taken to a local hospital where he was treated for trauma and later discharged.
