“Unfortunately this could probably be our worst day in two or three years, you’d probably be going back to 2011 or 2012,” he said.
“It’s a very tough time and unfortunately nothing will be spared, except perhaps gold.” The slide was spread across the market, with banks, miners, retailers, healthcare providers and telcos all down sharply. Gold stocks nudged ahead as investors sought out safe-haven investments.
Meanwhile, the Australian dollar has fallen around three quarters of a US cent since Friday and is currently trading at around 76.3 US cents.
Australia is one of the first stock markets to react to the breakdown in talks between Greece and euro zone and IMF creditors on the weekend and the sell off is likely to be replicated across the world.
Japan’s Nikkei is down around two per cent, while the Korean and New Zealand markets are more than one per cent lower.

Greek banks will be shut on Monday and capital controls have been placed on ATMs amid fears of a run on the banks, while the country’s stock market will also be closed.
