National City (NCC), once a big originator of subprime mortgages, has taken $5.4 billion in mortgage-related losses and writedowns. In April, the bank announced a plan to raise $7 billion in new capital. Since then, however, National City shares have plummeted, closing after the Sept. 29 stock market sell-off at just 1.36, from a 52-week high of 27.21 last October. National City operates 1,400 branches in nine states.
