Stocks Edge Up as Inflation Appears Contained
New York stocks rose modestly as technology shares rebound and inflation data comforted investors. The Dow gained 12.33 to 11,563.43, the S&P 500 rose 4.24 to 1,436.49, and the Nasdaq advanced 19.61 to 3,869.63. The Labor Department showed wholesale prices up 3 percent in 1999, driven by energy, while excluding energy prices rose 0.9 percent. The December Producer Price Index rose 0.3 percent, in line with expectations, easing fears of rapid Fed rate hikes. Analysts expect a 25 basis point rise at the Feb 1-2 meeting, with few anticipating more. Local quotes listed several firms and farm prices.
