Citi to slash 52,000 jobs

(01:34) Report

Nov. 17 - Citigroup announced plans to cut 52,000 positions in a drastic move to offset billions of dollars in losses tied largely to risky home loans.

The stock lost ground and remained at levels not seen since Citigroup was created by a merger in 1998.

Citigroup is now barely worth twice the $25 billion it received from the Treasury's $700 billion bank rescue plan.
