Vikram Pandit: "Rumor Mongering Is At The Heart Of Our Problems"
Charlie Gasparino reports that Vikram Pandit just held a conference call which CG "was listening in on in my robe and underwear." Apparently Count Vikula made three points:
1. The problem with stock price is based on fear mongering.
2. Our capital position is very strong.
3. We're keeping the company together. Smith Barney will not be spun off.
