one, two, three... jab, jab, uppercut and... is it knock out ? ____________________ Merrill Lynch suffers triple blow By Joshua Chaffin in New York and Tony Tassell in London Published: May 17 2002 18:36 \| Last Updated: May 17 2002 18:45 Merrill Lynch suffered a triple blow on Friday as a ratings agency cut its credit rating, a UK pension fund fired its asset management division and it abandoned a highly-touted joint venture with HSBC bank to manage money for affluent clients.
