JPMorgan, other banks drag stocks lower

NEW YORK — A disappointing jobs report dragged stocks lower Friday. Banks took a hit after a Massachusetts court upheld a ruling in a foreclosure case against U.S. Bancorp and Wells Fargo & Co. that could lead to more trouble for lenders. The Labor Department said employers added 103,000 jobs in December, less than analysts expected. Job growth has remained sluggish in the U.S. since the recession ended in June 2009.

Stocks mixed on last trading day before Christmas

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks ended mixed in a light day of trading Thursday after reports showed small improvements in consumer spending and the job market. The Commerce Department reported that consumer spending rose 0.4 percent in November from the month before. That was slightly below expectations of a 0.5 percent gain.

Jobless claims drop sends stocks higher

NEW YORK (AP) — A small drop in unemployment claims and a higher profit forecast by FedEx Corp. helped push stocks to two-year highs Thursday. The Labor Department said first-time claims for unemployment benefits fell last week to 420,000, the third drop in four weeks. The four-week average of claims also slid for the sixth straight week, reaching the lowest level since July 2008. That was before Lehman Brothers collapsed and markets seized up at the height of the financial crisis.

Stocks end mixed

NEW YORK — Stocks closed mixed Thursday as traders waited to see whether a tax compromise brokered by the White House and Republicans will pass the Democratic-controlled House. House Democrats pledged Thursday to reject the tax deal as it is currently written. The compromise reached by President Barack Obama and Republican leaders would extend tax cuts at all income levels for two years. House Democrats want tax rates for the wealthiest Americans to revert to their previous levels.

Holiday retail sales push stocks higher

NEW YORK — Strong retail sales and a healthy reading on the housing market helped stocks start December with a two-day winning streak. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 106 points. Combined with a 249-point gain Wednesday, the Dow has had its best two-day run since July 7-8. Major retailers reported sales in November that were stronger than analysts expected. Increased spending during the holiday season would be a strong signal that consumers are feeling more confident.

Global leaders were sharply divided over currency and trade policies heading in to the Group of 20 summit meeting in Korea, and a sense of pessimism was hanging over the start of the meeting of top officials from rich and emerging economies.

Stocks set highs for 2010

NEW YORK — The Federal Reserve wanted to push interest rates lower and jump-start financial markets with its $600 billion economic stimulus plan. So far the Fed is getting the results it wants. Long-term interest rates sank and stocks indexes hit new highs Thursday, a day after the Fed announced its massive bond-buying plan. The Dow Jones industrial average soared more than 220 points, reaching another high for the year. All three main stock indexes have now reached 2010 highs this week.

Dow steady amidst foreclosure storm

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks have made back almost all their earlier losses and closed slightly lower, ending a four-day winning streak. The Dow had fallen as much as 70 points on concerns about the foreclosure practices at major banks including JP Morgan Chase and Bank of America. The banks, which are being investigated by state attorneys general, have suspended foreclosures while they review whether they were complying with the law when they foreclosed on delinquent mortgages.

Stocks dip ahead of jobs news

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks edged lower Thursday, backing away from early gains, as uncertainty built up ahead of a key report on the labor market. The Dow Jones industrial average came within two points of 11,000 before turning lower for most of the day. The Dow hasn’t traded above that level since May 4, about a week after reaching its highest point of the year. Slightly better news on claims for unemployment insurance gave stocks an early lift, but the gains faded quickly as traders opted for caution ahead of Friday’s employment report from the Labor Department, the most crucial piece of news on the economic calendar.
