The luxury clothing firm Burberry today reported a marked slowdown in sales growth, sending its shares tumbling.
The company - which yesterday named a new executive to succeed Rose Marie Bravo - said it faced "some of the toughest trading for 20 years", exacerbated by its concentration on London.
Other retailers have said business in the capital has been affected by the July 7 suicide bombings and further attempted attacks on the transport system a fortnight later.
