Shares have continued to fall in trading on the Asian markets, following the financial turmoil in Monday after the collapse of one of America's most prestigious investment banks Lehman Brothers. The Shanghai market saw a fall of around 4% at the end of morning trading. Hong Kong was down by around 6%, a figure repeated in South Korea. In Tokyo, shares fell by just over 5%, from where Chris Hogg reports.

turmoil:骚动、混乱
prestigious:有声望的

跟随着周一美国极有声望的投行雷曼兄弟的破产，亚洲股票交易价格持续下跌。沪指在早晨收盘时下跌了4%。香港和韩国均下跌6%。在东京，股价下跌超过5%。Chris Hogg报道。

It's not yet clear how much Japanese banks and insurance companies are owned by Lehman's, that uncertainty has hit the share prices hard. Lehman's Japanese unit filed for bankruptcy when the courts opened in Tokyo on Tuesday morning. It's liabilities weren't set out in detail, but one estimate puts the figure at more than $37,000,000,000, which if confirmed will make it Japan's second biggest bankruptcy ever. Shares also fell here and across Asia because of concerns about how the continuing problems in the US economy will affect the demand for exports from this part of the world.

到底有多少家日本银行和保险公司由雷曼掌控还不清楚，这种不确定性对股票价格的冲击很大。周二早晨法庭刚开始工作，日本的雷曼公司就去申请破产。雷曼的负债没有明细，但是估计约有370美元的负债项目。一旦被确认，它将会成为日本史上第二大的破产案例。在亚洲的其他地区股票价格也下跌，对于美国的经济问题将影响该地区的出口需求的担忧是股票下跌的原因。

Production has been halted at the world's largest aircraft manufacturer Boeing after 27,000 workers went on strike over a pay dispute. Their trade union is demanding greater job security of the benefits and commitment from Boeing that it will stop outsourcing jobs. Ulyan Boner reports.

The strike could have huge implications for the planemaker. Analysts say it could cost Boeing more than $100,000,000 per day in loss revenues. The company said it would not attempt to assemble any new planes during the strike, putting on hold the production of 4 different types of aircraft. Further delays in the production of Boeing's new 787 Dreamliner are also expected. No new talks are scheduled and both sides say they are now waiting for the other to make the next move.

在两万七千名工人因为工资纠纷罢工之后，世界上最大的飞机制造商波音公司的产量逐渐下降。他们的工会要求公司给予他们收益更好的保障，这样可以减少额外的付出。Ulyan Boner报道。

这次的罢工可能对飞机制造者来说意味着更多。分析家说这可能使波音公司每天的收入损失1亿美元。公司方面声称他们不会在罢工期间生产新型飞机，只保持原有的四种型号以维持生计。波音787新的生产线可能也会终止。公司和工会双方进一步的谈话不再行程中，双方都表示他们在等待对方做出下一步的让步。
