Lehman Brothers will announce third-quarter results, strategic initiatives early Wednesday

NEW YORK (AP) -- Lehman Brothers says it will unveil a set of "key strategic initiatives" early Wednesay as the embattled investment bank faces down investor concerns that it's running out of options to raise badly needed capital.

The announcement from Lehman late Tuesday came on the same day investors drove the company's shares down 45 percent to their lowest level in more than a decade.

The bank also said it would announce its quarterly results early Wednesday, a week ahead of schedule. It is expected to report a multibillion dollar loss.
