24/7 Wall St. Daily News
Wall Street opened the week flat, ahead of the weeks’ earnings, despite a rise in the financial sector. Weak earnings, a dismal global financial assessment from the IMF, and deepening worries about the American economy kept U.S. stocks down most of the week. Thursday saw Wall Street boosted by a positive forecast for discount retailers. The TSX remained mostly up during the week on commodities, despite fears about the U.S. economic outlook. However, the North American markets closed down Friday on weak earnings from GE and lower-than-expected consumer confidence. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/typepad/RyNm?i=liOxyTG</img> (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/typepad/RyNm?a=liOxyTG) http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/typepad/RyNm?i=7mDgj7G</img> (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/typepad/RyNm?a=7mDgj7G) http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/typepad/RyNm?i=iolJyig</img> (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/typepad/RyNm?a=iolJyig)
