Question - 59

Connect the three visuals.

Answer: The connect is Lehman Brothers. The first visual shows the brothers who founded the company, the second one is their share value dropping after the company declared bankruptcy on Monday, the third is the logo of Barclays who are acquiring a portion of the company. Bala, Vijay, Rajeev, Mekhala, Hirak, Adi, Vikrant and Rajesh got it. Well done.

2. The second pic on top indicates price of lehman stock over the past one week. Bottom one indicates the volume traded over the last one week.

3. The last is the symbol of Barclays which has agreed to buy a stake in Lehman Bros.
