Market and Financial World Highlights From June 7
The Associated Press reports a major stock market drop of 104 points on Monday with broad declines blamed on weak domestic news and increased uncertainty. Trading volume was about 2.21 million shares, one of the slowest days of the month, while brokers note reduced investor interest rather than a broad market rally. The AP average slid to 70.4, marking a sharp downward trend with many issues trading lower across sectors, including rails, autos, and metals.
