Pound crashes 6% in 2 minutes 
The pound saw a sudden collapse in intra-day trade on Friday, plunging over 6% to $1.1841 in two minutes, to hit a fresh 31-year-low. The drop was the currency's biggest since the UK voted to leave the European Union on June 23. This reportedly followed a 'flash crash' driven by a technical glitch that created a lot of computer-driven orders.
