Market Cents Mixed As New York Dims While Boston Leads

Sugar, St. Paul, and Brooklyn Rapid Transit posted fractional changes as New England Gas and Old Dominion gained. The market notes point to optimism for copper and the broader future, with sentiment cautious ahead of elections and credit conditions tightened by a large reserve and loan declines.
