Market Wrap for August 18, 2008 -
News flow was relatively light Monday, but participants still found an
excuse to take money off the table. Their selling efforts pushed the
major indices substantially lower; each finished a bit above their
session lows.
As oil prices reversed declines, stocks were sent lower. Stocks then
stayed there for the rest of the session as focus returned to the
troubles of government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae (FNM 6.15,
-1.76) and Freddie Mac (FRE 4.39, -1.46), even though crude settled
lower below the $113 per barrel mark.
Despite the session's decline the stock market is still up 6.5% and the
financial sector is up 22% since the July 15 low. The financial sector
finished the session 3.6% lower.
In the tech sector (-1.3%), video game maker Electronic Arts (ERTS
47.76, -0.48) is letting its offer for Take-Two Interactive (TTWO
23.75, -1.09) expire tonight.
Home improvement retailer Lowe's (LOW 24.54, +0.04) posted
better-than-expected earnings per share results for its latest quarter,
but issued a mixed outlook.
Mining outfit BHP Billiton (BHP 65.48, +0.26) posted its sixth record
full-year profit and offered an upbeat outlook, according to The Wall
Street Journal.
Still, without any clear leader and selling abounding, only one sector
was able to finish the session with any sort of gain: the
defensive-orientated utilities sector (+0.1%). Utilities hit a 52-week
low earlier this month and are up little more than 2% since. DJ30
