THE stock market ended in the red for the second straight day on Tuesday, slipping out of the 7,500 territory after the International Monetary Fund (IMF) lowered its growth forecasts for the country and four of its regional neighbors and amid continued uncertainties caused by the government’s perceived crackdown on some of the country’s top corporations.

The benchmark Philippine Stock Exchange index (PSEi) slid by 1.14 percent or 85.95 points to close at 7,466.65, while the wider All Shares fell 0.88 percent or 39.56 points to end at 4,434.71.
