Citigroup Reports a $1.6 Billion Loss in 2009

Even as it untangles itself from the federal government,
Citigroup has shown few signs of a quick recovery. On
Tuesday, the banking giant announced its second consecutive
yearly loss.

The bank said that it lost about $1.6 billion in 2009 --
after a $18.72 billion loss the year before. It also reported
$7.6 billion loss in the fourth quarter, the result of a

bailout money, which ended any chance of a profit. Last year,
the bank had a fourth quarter loss of $8.29 billion or a
$1.72 a share.
