Clinton taps Rubin to succeed Bentsen as Treasury head
President Clinton named Robert Rubin to replace Lloyd Bentsen as Treasury secretary, a move analysts expect to barely shift policy as both men share pro business views. Rubin, who left Goldman Sachs for public service, faced scrutiny over the transition to the top economic policy role amid a Republican Congress. Bentsen will return to Texas after 22 Senate years, while Clinton praised his contributions.

Stocks Mixed As Bond Rally Fails To Lift Markets
New York traders closed mixed after a volatile day led by a strong bond rally. Dow edged up at midday but slipped, then recovered to a small gain as Fidelity's Magellan Fund announced no year end dividend, dampening hopes for a seasonal rally despite a 30 year Treasury yield drop to 7.83 percent.
