UPDATE 1-New York probes short-selling in financial stocks

NEW YORK, Sept 18 (Reuters) - New York has started a wide-ranging probe
into
possible illegal short-selling in the stocks of Wall Street firms such
as
Goldman Sachs Group Inc <GS.N> and Morgan Stanley <MS.N>, Attorney
General
Andrew Cuomo said on Thursday. 

Cuomo said on a conference call with reporters: "I want the
short-sellers to
know today that I am watching. If it is proper and legal then there is
nothing to worry about." 

He said his office was concerned about destabilization of the market. He
said it would also look back into possible illegal short-selling that
may
have occurred in stocks of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc <LEHMQ.PK> and
American International Group Inc <AIG.N>, two firms at the heart of the
Wall
Street crisis. 

"This investigation will not only encompass short-selling of Lehman
Brothers
and AIG but also short-selling in other companies that may be occurring,
like Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs," Cuomo said. 

"My office will investigate and prosecute short-sellers who spread bad
information and false rumors and who conspire to bring down a company's
stock price or who engage in other manipulative and fraudulent conduct."


Cuomo said the markets "need to be stabilized and the only way to help
bring
about that stability is to root out and deter short-selling that is
based on
false information." 

>From Thursday, U.S. securities regulators tightened rules on traders who
profit from stock declines. 

The New York prosecutor said he believes the SEC should freeze
short-selling
of financial sector stocks on a temporary basis. On Thursday, UK
securities
regulators imposed a ban through Jan. 16 on the short-selling of
financial-sector stocks to help stabilize the market.
