Shares of American International Group Inc. fell Tuesday as investors questioned whether the huge insurer would come up with more money to stay in business and avoid igniting even more global financial turmoil. AIG shares were down $1.96, or 41.2 percent, to $2.80 in early afternoon trading, rebounding from an intraday low of $1.25 but below the day's high of $4.57. Shares have traded as high as $70.13 during the past year. (AP Photo/Sang Tan)
