New York Community Bancorp sank by double digits for the fourth time in five days, extending a rout that was triggered last week by a surprise quarterly loss and move to slash its dividend.

Shares of the lender slumped 22% on Tuesday, closing at the lowest level since 1997. The stock has now slumped about 60% since its earnings release on Jan. 31, erasing roughly $4.5 billion from its market capitalization.
