Bears in Control and on Rampage
Wall Street reports a volatile session with bears pressing prices while short covering limited gains. Atchison rose on a rumor of Berlin listing and a $10 million bond sale, yet overall markets remained weak as pessimism in iron and steel lingered and railroad earnings weighed on sentiment. Local Boston trading showed little activity with most stocks down and concerns over commissions and exchange structure shaping the day.
