Stocks dip in hesitant trading as Fed rate cut eyed
Stocks edged lower as investors booked profits after Friday's rally and awaited upcoming reports and next week's Federal Reserve meeting. The Dow fell to 10,935.17, the Nasdaq slipped to 2,173.57, and the S and P 500 dropped to 1,263.51 amid cautious trading and expectations of a fifth rate cut this year. Energy stocks led activity with mergers as Williams Companies agreed to acquire Barrett Resources for 2.5 billion dollars. Valero agreed to buy Ultramar Diamond Shamrock for about 4 billion dollars, while Prudential cut J P Morgan Chase’s rating to sell from hold.
