Stock rally: Three days and counting

By Alexandra Twin, senior writer



NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Stocks rallied Thursday, ending higher for the third-straight session, as investors continued to dig back in after a month long retreat that left the Dow and other major indexes at three-month lows.

A weaker dollar gave a lift to dollar-traded commodities and select blue chips. The morning's regional manufacturing report and Hewlett-Packard's quarterly results added to the gains.

The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) rose 84 points, or 0.8% according to early tallies. The S&P 500 index (SPX) added 7 points, or 0.7%. The Nasdaq composite (COMP) added 15 points or 0.7%.

Stocks had been volatile through the early afternoon as investors eyed Wal-Mart's cautious outlook, a jump in weekly jobless claims and a rise in a key inflation indicator.

A number of energy stocks rallied as the dollar turned mixed. Other gainers on the day were concentrated in the bank and tech sector.

27 of 30 Dow stocks rose, led by Boeing (BA, Fortune 500), Chevron (CVX, Fortune 500), IBM (IBM, Fortune 500), Travelers Companies (TRV, Fortune 500), 3M (MMM, Fortune 500) and Hewlett-Packard (HPQ, Fortune 500). HP's better-than-expected quarterly results fueled its stock gains.

Stocks gained Wednesday thanks to a better-than-expected housing report, a mixed forecast from the Federal Reserve and some upbeat company news. The gains followed a big rally Tuesday.

"The market was due for a rally after all the selling over the last few weeks, so you're seeing a few days of gains," said Sean Kraus, chief investment officer at CitizensTrust.

But Kraus said that there were still questions about the same issues that have been dragging on the market over the last few weeks. They include whether Greece's debt crisis is indicative of a bigger problem in Europe and what China's decision to pull back bank lending will mean.

Add in Thursday's weekly jobless claims report and Wal-Mart's outlook and "it all makes the recovery look tentative," Kraus said. "When that happens, the market doesn't know what to do."

Between recent rally highs hit on Jan. 19 and the lows of early February, the S&P 500 slumped over 9%, while the Nasdaq and Dow lost over 7%. But in the last two weeks stocks have recovered, with the Dow now just over 330 points away from its 2010 high of 10,725.43.

Jobs: The number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment rose to 473,000 last week from a revised 442,000 in the previous week. Economists surveyed by Briefing.com expected 438,000 claims.

Continuing claims, a measure of Americans who have been receiving benefits for a year or more, held steady at 4.563 million versus forecasts for a drop to 4.5 million.

Quarterly results: Hewlett-Packard (HPQ, Fortune 500) reported higher quarterly earnings and revenue that topped expectations, after the close Wednesday. The company also boosted its outlook for the full year. HP shares rose 1%.

Wal-Mart Stores (WMT, Fortune 500) reported higher quarterly earnings that topped estimates on higher quarterly revenue that missed estimates.

The company also said that sales at stores open a year or more, a retail metric known as same-store sales, fell 1.6% for the quarter, the first quarterly decline. Same-store sales were flat for the year.

Looking out, the company said its U.S. business was likely to continue to struggle in the tough economy. Wal-Mart forecast first-quarter earnings of between 81 cents and 85 cents per share versus forecasts for 85 cents. Wal-Mart shares fell 1.5%.

Economy: Other economic reports released Thursday included the Producer Price index (PPI), a measure of wholesale inflation, the Philadelphia Fed index, a regional reading on manufacturing and the index of leading economic indicators (LEI).

PPI rose a seasonally adjusted 1.4% in January, versus forecasts for a rise of 0.8%. PPI rose 0.4% in the previous month. The so-called core PPI, which strips out volatile food and energy costs, rose 0.3% versus forecasts for a rise of 0.1%. Core PPI was flat in December.

LEI rose 0.3% in January after rising 1.2% in December. Economists thought it would rise to 0.5%.

The Philadelphia Fed index rose to 17.6 in February from 15.2 in January. Economists thought it would rise to 17.

AIG: AIG (AIG, Fortune 500) said it will keep up to 25% of the controversial assets that nearly caused its demise, after previously planning to sell off its entire derivatives portfolio. The company now says it will hold onto up to $500 billion in assets so as to take advantage of the recent recovery in credit markets.

AIG shares were barely changed.

Deficit: President Obama issued an executive order for the formation of a bipartisan debt panel, after the Senate voted last month to kill plans to create a similar commission.

World markets: In overseas trading, European markets rallied, with the London FTSE 100 up 0.9%. Asian markets tumbled, with the exception of the Japanese Nikkei, which gained 0.3%.

The dollar and commodities: The dollar fell versus the euro and gained versus the yen.

U.S. light crude oil for March delivery rose $1.73 to $79.06 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

COMEX gold for April delivery fell $1.50 to $1118 per ounce. Gold had fallen in the morning after the International Monetary Fund said Wednesday that it would sell another 191.3 tons of gold on top of the 212 tons it has sold since September.

Bonds: Treasury prices tumbled, raising the yield on the 10-year note to 3.80% from 3.74% late Wednesday. Treasury prices and yields move in opposite directions.

Market breadth was positive. On the New York Stock Exchange, winners topped losers three to two on volume of 600 million shares. On the Nasdaq, advancers beat decliners by a narrow margin on volume of 1.46 billion shares.

Well. If you care for STI, you should also look at DOW and SSE.

STI is a very small market and is easily affected by other major markets, especially DOW and SSE.

By looking at DOW and SSE, you will be more prepared for any sudden market changes and not caught off guard.

I was so fixated on the minor Bull run that I overlook this.

Dow Jones price crosses the SAM (20) on 16 Feb 2010.

This mean that Dow Jones are in the positive territory now and the start of a major Bull run.

Get ready for the ride up.

Stocks extend gains

By Alexandra Twin, senior writer

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Stocks gained Wednesday as investors considered a better-than-expected housing report, a mixed forecast from the Federal Reserve and some upbeat company news.

The dollar firmed up, hitting dollar-traded oil, gold prices and stocks. Treasury prices plunged.

The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) rose 40 points, or 0.4% according to early tallies. The S&P 500 index (SPX) added 3 points, or 0.3%. The Nasdaq composite (COMP) edged up 5 points, or 0.4%.

Stocks clung to modest gains throughout the session Wednesday as investors weighed the day's news against the headwinds that have punished stocks year-to-date.

After the close, Hewlett-Packard (HPQ, Fortune 500) reported higher quarterly earnings and revenue that topped expectations.

Stocks rallied Tuesday after Merck and Barclays released better-than-expected results and commodity prices rose. The Dow gained 1.7%, or 170 points, for its biggest one-day point gain since Nov. 9.

But Tuesday's advance was an exception, and stocks have had a rough start to the year, with the Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500 posting declines for four of the last five weeks.

Worries about China limiting bank lending and the threat of Greece's debt crisis expanding have dragged on stocks. European officials have sought to soothe worries about Greece and other euro zone countries lately, but broader concerns about the strength of any recovery have continued to worry investors.

"I think the market is struggling with higher expectations going into 2010," said Alan Lancz, president at Alan B. Lancz & Associates.

Lancz said that the China and euro debt issues took investors by surprise and that while quarterly profit reports have been good, the economic news has been mixed.

"All of this has brought to light that while the economic recovery is going to be good, its not going to be as strong as had been anticipated," Lancz said. "Stock valuations are going to need to catch up to the economy.

In 2009, the Dow gained 18.8%, the S&P 500 rose 23.4% and the Nasdaq gained 44%. But the gains were even bigger off multi-year lows of last March, with the Dow rising 59%, the S&P 500 rising 65% and the Nasdaq rising 79%.

Fed minutes: The central bank released the minutes from its last policy meeting in the afternoon, as well as its revised economic forecast. Chairman Ben Bernanke and the other officials said unemployment should decline only modestly over the next few years, keeping the unemployment rate above the level that is typical during a recovery.

The bankers also gave a slight boost to forecasts for economic growth this year, lifting the target to growth of between 2.8% and 3.5% in 2010 versus November forecasts for growth between 2.5% and 3.5%.

Economy: Housing starts rose 2.8% in January to a 591,000 annual unit rate, according to a National Association of Home Builders report released Wednesday morning. Economists surveyed by Briefing.com thought it would rise to a 580,000 unit annual rate from a 575,000 unit annual rate in the previous month.

Building permits, a measure of builder confidence, fell 4.9% to an annual unit rate of 621,000 in January, versus forecasts for a drop to a 620,000 unit annual rate. Permits stood at a 653,000 unit annual rate in the prior month.

Industrial production rose 0.9% in January after rising 0.7% in the previous month, the government reported Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Briefing.com thought it would rise 0.7%. Capacity utilization rose to 72.6%, as expected, from 71.9% in December.

Investors will also look to the minutes from the Federal Reserve's last meeting, which are due out at 2 p.m. ET.

Quarterly results: Deere & Co. (DE, Fortune 500) reported higher quarterly earnings that topped estimates on lower revenue that also topped estimates. The heavy equipment maker said that cost-cutting and the benefit of better currency rates helped offset the weak economic environment. Deere also boosted its 2010 sales forecast. Shares gained 5% in morning trading.

Around 379 companies, or 76% of the S&P 500, have reported results. Currently, results are on track to have risen 208% from a year earlier, according to Thomson Reuters. Revenues are set to rise 8%. Stripping out the recharged financial sector, earnings are set to rise 16% and revenues 3%.

Company news: In deal news, Walgreen (WAG, Fortune 500) said it will buy rival drugstore Duane Reade in a deal valued at $1.08 billion including debt.

Toyota (TM) said it plans to install a new brake override system in its cars, and that it will tighten controls on safety, in the aftermath of its recall of millions of autos due to faulty brakes.

However, President Akio Toyoda said he won't testify before Congress at the hearing later this month. Shares of Toyota fell nearly 3%.

World markets: In overseas trading, European markets ended higher, with the London FTSE up 0.7%, the French CAC 40 up 1.6% and the German DAX up 1.1%. Asian markets rallied, with the Japanese Nikkei adding 2.7%.

The dollar and commodities: The dollar gained versus the euro and the yen, pressuring dollar-traded commodity prices.
