Lehman’s stock drops amid rumors

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Shares of Lehman Brothers fell by nearly 10 percent in early New York trading on Thursday on rumors that the fourth largest U.S. investment bank could see a run on the bank similar to what happened to Bear Stearns, traders said.

Declines in Lehman’s shares on Thursday are “all being tied to fears of Bear Stearns,” said Robert Bolton, head trader for Mendon Capital Advisors in Rochester, New York. “Does another broker dealer go the route of Bear Stearns with regard to their solvency and the like.”
