Bank of America shares dip below $5


    NEW YORK (Reuters) - Shares of Bank of America Corp traded below $5 on Monday for the first time since the depths of the current bear market in March 2009.

    The stock hit a session low of $4.96, and with more than 245 million shares traded so far its volume-weighted average price was $5.0432. The stock closed at $5.20 on Friday.

    Shares of financial institutions have declined on worries about the global economy and the possible exposure to sovereign defaults in Europe.
