Battered Lehman to announce 'key' initiatives
Tuesday September 9, 7:08 pm ET
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.
"Pride is the first sin, the very negation of humility, and of the devotion and sacrifice of the Cross. Greed and indifference to others, lawlessness and betrayal, are the daughters of Pride, the father of all sin. The unsustainable will not be sustained. God's wrath grows fierce. Nemesis awaits. Pride and its sins are the chains that imprison Satan and the damned in their hell." Jesse, Resist the Daughters of Pride, March 2024
