MarketWatch Mon. 2:58 MarketWatch.com by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks posted mild losses on Monday after a two-session rally ahead of central-bank meetings and the monthly jobs report later in the week. Monday’s moves are “more of a continuation of what the market wants to digest from Europe, and talk now about the jobs report and less of a focus on earnings, which is leaving the market up in the air,” said Andrew Fitzpatrick, director of investments at Hinsdale Associates Inc.
“The earnings season is winding down. We got a lot last week, and the theme here is a little disappointing, nothing extreme, but weaker sales and tempered expectations for the future are a little bit of a concern for investors,” Fitzpatrick said. Wavering between gains and losses, the benchmark indexes were mostly in the red. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageDJIA -0.02% shed 7.80 points to 13,067.86. The heaviest weight among the Dow components, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. JPM -2.03% fell 2.5% after Deutsche Bank AG downgraded the bank to hold from buy, saying earnings estimates might be too lofty. The S&P 500 Index SPX -0.05% shed 1.59 point to 1,384.38, with Telecommunications pacing gains and health-care the weakest performer among its 10 sectors.
“The key test for the market will be whether the S&P 500 can hold above 1,375, Friday’s break out. If some of the potential negative divergences come to fruition, then support may give way, which will make for the move above 1,375 a false break out,” noted Elliot Spar, market strategist at Stifel Nicolaus. Best Buy Co.BBY +1.69% shares advanced 1.2% after Bloomberg News reported the electronics retailer’s founder was recruiting executives to help his effort at taking the company private. A New York lender alleges in a lawsuit that it was cheated out of interest income because rates on loans tied to Libor were "artificially" depressed. The Nasdaq Composite COMP -0.41% retreated 12.74 points, or 0.4%, to 2,945.36. Decliners pulled just ahead of advancers on the New York Stock Exchange, where 364 million shares traded as of 2:35 p.m. Eastern. Oil declined as the dollar DXY +0.24% rose against the euroEURUSD -0.32% on worries that central bankers would take overly small steps to boost economic growth. Crude for September delivery CLU2 -0.67% fell 0.4% to $89.78 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. After meeting on an island in northern Germany, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Germany’s finance minister on Monday vowed to cooperate in advancing policies to stabilize the global and European economies. Geithner was also expected to meet with European Central Bank President Mario Draghi, who last week reiterated that the ECB would do whatever it takes to safeguard the euro. Federal Reserve policy makers in Washington are scheduled to conclude a meeting Wednesday, two days before the monthly jobs report is released. The ECB’s governing council will meet on Thursday. “The bar has been lowered,” said Fitzpatrick of expectations for the July nonfarm payrolls report, which he pegged at an increase of about 100,000. Also, a weaker-than-expected report might not get as negative a market reaction as one might expect, given the possible implications on monetary policy decisions by the Fed. “If it were to disappoint, it could give more ammo to the Fed to act,” Fitzpatrick said.
