Spain bans short-selling of shares as markets fall

Spain has banned short-selling of shares to try to limit price moves after markets fell sharply on fears the country may need a full bailout.

The yield on the country's 10-year bonds reached a new euro-era high of 7.56% on Monday, before falling back to 7.43% in early afternoon trading.
