Fallout from the war in Iran rocked financial markets further on Tuesday, sending oil and gas prices higher and stocks sharply lower.
In Dublin, the Iseq index of Irish shares was down 2.65pc by Tuesday’s close. Insulation giant Kingspan led the declines, down 3.98pc on the day, followed by Ryanair (-2.19pc).
