![]() 11/29/2011 American Airtlines Bankruptcy "NEW YORK (Reuters) - American Airlines shares were having their busiest day in history on Tuesday after the company's parent filed for bankruptcy, even taking account of 16 mandatory trading halts due to the volatility. Shares of AMR Corp, the parent of American Airlines, dropped 80 percent to 32 cents, with more than 125 million shares traded after the company's bankruptcy. It ranked as second-most active early on Tuesday afternoon behind Bank of America. The stock was halted repeatedly in the early hours of trading due to volatility. A stock in the Russell 1000 index that moves more than 10 percent in a five-minute period is halted under circuit breaker rules adopted by U.S. exchanges after the May 2010 "flash crash." With a stock at such a low price as AMR, it only takes a move of a few cents to hit the
10 percent threshold that triggers a halt." Fatal
