Market opens steady then climbs on short covering
Brokers say the market opened normal and 1 to 1 percent higher on leaders, sagged briefly, then rose above opening prices to close near the day’s top on short covering. Trading last hour was quiet with small transactions and little feature. A rally just before the close pushed prices to the high. The market has been strong and may continue, though prices could react.
