Market Outlook Sees Upward Trend Despite Fed Watch
A broad market briefing notes an overall tilt upward with potential near term profit-taking after the Fed leaves the discount rate unchanged. Aluminum and certain issues like Suntay DX Oil Chrysler Mead Johnson Minerals & Chemicals Philipp and General Aniline & Film are highlighted as favored. The Dow Jones industrial average posts a new recovery high closing at 868.49 with intraday peak above 872.33, while the broader indices also hit recovery highs and rails join the upturn, though the advance-decline line remains shy of its best level.
