15:43 ET Sun Microsystems pressured by Hitachi, debt rumor (SUNW) 3.38 -0.13: Shares are conspicously weak on a day that most hardware names have been in positive territory; we're hearing speculation among traders that the shares are getting hit (along with IBM -1.6%) on Hitachi's preannouncement and talk of pricing pressure at Hitachi Data Systems; in addition, we're also hearing rumors that SUNW may get hit with a debt downgrade (although this would have little more than a psychological effect, since the co has very little debt).

American Air Jet Diverted in 'Security Incident' Wed Sep 11, 3:22 PM ET story.news.yahoo.com HOUSTON (Reuters) - An American Airlines jet bound for Dallas returned to Houston Intercontinental Airport shortly after takeoff on Wednesday because of what an airlines spokesman called "a security incident" on board. An FBI ( news - web sites) spokesman told a Houston television station there may have been an attempted hijacking on board. "It appears to be an attempted hijacking, but I do not have that confirmed," FBI agent Robert Doguim told KHOU-TV in Houston. News reports said passengers reported seeing two men in the cabin with what appeared to be a weapon, possibly a folding knife. The reports said the men were taken into custody. American spokesman Gus Whitcomb told Reuters that two U.S. air marshals were on the flight, as were four crew members and 50 passengers.
