Greenberg Begins Selling AIG Shares (AIG)

Last Updated:
There had been hopes that Hank Greenberg was going to come with his own plan to save American International Group (NYSE: AIG). That was removed yesterday after the company agreed to the government plan. But now it looks even less and less likely. The ex-Chairman has filed a 13D with the SEC to sell shares in the open market. We don’t know if this means anything about margin calls, but this massive drop in AIG has apparently caused liquidity issues. As of July 15, Greenberg’s Starr International held more than 227 million shares. See below:
AIG shares are up 19% at $3.94 today, but they had traded as highas $4.36 earlier before this filing. Sometimes billionaires lose moremoney than they can afford.
