MarketWatch 3:49 MarketWatch.com by Wallace Witkowski and Laura Mandaro: U.S. stocks extended gains into a second day Wednesday, turbocharged by a rally in tech stocks and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s comments, and undeterred by a slightly weaker Beige Book.
Federal
Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke sketched out for members of
Congress the weaker economic outlook and stressed that the central bank
is prepared to take further action to try to give the recovery a jolt.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA+0.81% stood
107 points higher, up 0.8% to 12,913. The index touched an intraday
high of 12,921.94 earlier in the session. Intel Corp. INTC+3.27%
led gainers on the Dow, up 3.9% after the chip company late Tuesday
lowered its third-quarter forecast by less than some analysts had
feared it would. Rounding out the top five stocks on the Dow, all with
gains of 2% or more, were Cisco Systems Inc. CSCO+2.90% , Hewlett-Packard Co. HPQ+2.28% , International Business Machines Corp. IBM+1.94% , and Microsoft Corp. MSFT+2.66% .
IBM reports quarterly results after the close of trading Wednesday.
Stocks across the board received a boost after Bernanke reiterated
remarks to Congress that the central bank was ready, though in no rush,
to inject more stimulus into the U.S. economy. He added that he
doesn’t expect the economy to slip back into recession. On the other
hand, Bank of America Corp. BAC-4.92%
shares led blue-chip decliners, down 4.2%, after the bank reported
second-quarter results that beat Wall Street estimates. The profit was
bulked up by reduced provisions for loan losses, however.
