After Tuesday's Bell Market Commentary
According to Bernard Schmitt, "On Tuesday, despite corporate consolidations, the markets retreated from earlier gains to close barely above the flatline. The markets had got a lift from upbeat economic reports abroad. The Greek government is scheduled to detail deeper spending cuts amid growing hopes European leaders will come up with a bailout. Investors are remaining cautious. Bond prices were little changed. The dollar mostly fell against other major currencies, meanwhile gold rose. Crude oil rose 98 cents to $79.68 per barrel. The Dow rose 2.19 or less than 0.1 percent to 10,405.98. The NASDAQ rose 7.22 or 0.3 percent to 2,280.79. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 2.60 or 0.2 percent to 1,118.31.
