I came across a sentence in the headline of an article published in the Finantial Times:
"Investors may walk after Spain's solar cut."
It's been written after the Spanish Government passed a decree in which the payment for fotovoltaic energy generation has been cut down.
"Walk" can mean in this context "go away", flee from investments in Spain??
My try
"Los inversores pueden huír/salir huyendo después del recorte Solar de España".

    Sí, pero tampoco 'huyendo' 'Puede que los inversores le den la espalda a España después del recorte'
     
    Thank you Scotu.

    Thank you Lairlandesaenmurciaquehermosaeres.
    So, you'd translate it just as "irse", in a figurative sense.
    "Los inversores pueden irse de/ dejar España"?

    Sí, hombre al no ser que estén instaladísimos ya y este hecho hará que se vayan. Si no, va bien el figurativo.
