Wall Street Inertia Persists Despite Rumors Of Dividends
The Washington Post notes that despite recent passes of gas, steel, and currency events, Wall Street shows little market impact. Rumors of a 1 percent dividend from Brooklyn Rapid Transit circulate ahead of a directors’ meeting, while London gold holdings progress slowly and Bank of England optimism remains muted. Trading opens briskly but turns weaker with declines in standard shares and a late selloff led by Union Pacific, amid sporadic gains in Denver and Rio Grande and strength in certain gas stocks.
