Canary or songbird in the coal mine
Guardian: Canary Wharf owner rescued by China and Qatar
Qatar and China have had to jump in to rescue Canary Wharf. Songbird Estates, which lost a mere £1.8bn last year , agreed to raise equity financing to safeguard its future - not so good for shareholder then. Analysts say the fundraising will be the biggest ever seen in the property sector - which just goes to prove the size of hole in the property sector. More write downs to come no doubt.
