ASX sinks; EML sheds 46pc, bitcoin dives 10pc Save Share Sarah Turner The Australian market sank to its worst session since late February, with the benchmark falling 1.9 per cent, or 134 points, to 6931.70. EML led the slide, dropping 46 per cent to $2.35 after the Central Bank of Ireland raised “significant regulatory concerns” about anti-money laundering compliance in EML’s Irish-based subsidiary, acquired in late 2019. Miners and energy companies were the worst performers by sector as St Barbara fell 7 per cent, Perenti dropped 6.3 per cent and Whitehaven Coal fell 6.2 per cent. There were a handful of gainers over the session, with Appen a standout after investors rewarded the tech company’s restructuring plans.
