THE SCREENS tell us global markets are in freefall. Business Insider quotes Mark Cuban advising Americans to “go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for.”

Cosy cashmere and a whimsical porcelain sculpture that's nearly too charming to give away; beautiful objets d'art and an incredibly chic brass lighter case; fine jewellery and fashion jewellery...
