NEW YORK (Reuters) - Citigroup Inc is looking at multiple options as its share price sinks, including selling businesses, selling shares, or merging with another firm, a person familiar with the matter said.

Citigroup's shares lost more than a quarter of their value on Thursday and half their value this week amid concerns about the bank's capital position.
