"U.S. rescue efforts may risk double-dip recession" by Reuters
The government on Monday unveiled a revamped rescue package to insurance giant American International Group. The new package comes as the company has burned through cash and has been unable to find buyers for pieces of its company that it hoped to sell to repay the government on its existing aid package, which totals some $150 billion.
AIG, once the world's largest insurer, said Monday it lost $61.7 billion in the fourth fourth, the biggest quarterly loss in U.S. corporate history, amid continued financial market turmoil.
