All the indicators in red
Although first thing the indicators journeyed timidly in positive territory, soon prevailed a declining tendency with precipice, that did not yield until the end de the day.
The Dow ended up yielding 124.76 points (1.2%), and closed in 10.175, 64. The Nasdaq Composite - that represents the technology sector was punished, when yielding 63.92 units (3.15%). Monday it had on the brink de madness been the important line de the 2,000 points and the fall de yesterday submerged it until the 1,962, 79. The importance de this reduction does not reside only in the psychological thing:
there are stored field orders in the computers de the great operators who go def automatically with certain events. The S&P slid up to 1,181, 52 losing 17.26 (1.44%).
A black panorama de the sector networks, and the economy generally, could be deduced de the report de Corning, produced after the closing de Monday. To this alert the maximum incidence in the day de yesterday is attributed. But Alcatel had made an announcement similar, advancing the cut de 2,500 uses in the United States. Xerox also had been put to the defensive, informing that no it would distribute dividends. Other important companies, as Ericsson and Viacom received losses de qualification or prognoses de smaller yields.
The volume was to regulate so it is being seen lately. In the NYSE 1,250 million negotiated and the losers prevailed in relation from 1.6 to 1. Nasdaq moved 1,640 million and there the declinings elevated their pre-eminence to 1.7 to 1.
In the panel de the most compromised, only AT&T was in green. Cisco continued occupying podio, with 69 million and 6.1% de fall. It was escorted by AT&T (59 Ms, +10.4%) and Sun (42 Ms, -5,1%). They follow Intel (41 Ms, -3,8%), Oracle (38 Ms, -7%), WorldCom (34 Ms 0.2%), Microsdet (33 Ms, -1,8%), dell (32 Ms, -4,1%) and staff (29 Ms, -4,3%).
The strong ascent de AT&T must to the resignation de its director and main individual shareholder John Malone. Its distance would give a greater maneuver margin to look for alternatives the proposal de Comcast by the division AT&T Broadband, by which this company had supplied US$ 58,000 million.
The resignation de Malone makes a reference to its exclusion de the negotiations with Comcast, and to the “insufficiency” de that supply. There are commentaries de which the play would not have another objective that to make raise the bet. Convergencialatina, Corresponsalía in the United States (IA/JG).
