FTSE Shares prices today july 18 2011, down sharply

FTSE Shares prices today july 18 2011, down sharply ; London stocks closed sharply lower on Monday, amid uncertainty over the debt-ceiling impasse in Washington as well as the eurozone's battle to extinguish a blazing debt crisis.

Britain's top shares fell sharply on Monday after the results of stress tests on European banks were met with disappointment over their credibility while investors were also fearful over the threat of a U.S. default on the nation's debt.

The banking sector index sunk to a two-year low as money managers and traders cast doubts over whether the stress test results, released on Friday, were stringent enough.:

Lloyds Banking Group , Barclays , and Royal Bank of Scotland were at the top of the blue-chip fallers' list, off 7.5 percent, 7 percent, and 6 percent respectively.

Eight European banks -- five in Spain, two in Greece and one in Austria -- failed the test of their ability to withstand a long recession and will have to raise just 2.5 billion euros ($3.5 billion) of capital, significantly less than expected.

Expectations were for five to 15 banks to fall short with a need to raise 10 billion euros or more in
