MarketWatch.com Mon. 4: 48 pm by Kate Gibson says US stocks pared their losses Monday to close virtually unchanged as investors waited for events later in the week, including the minutes from the Federal Reserve’s last meeting, slated for release in two days. “This is central bank week, we’re all looking at Europe and the Fed,” said Paul Nolte, managing director at Dearborn Partners.
Economic reports since the Aug. 1 Federal Open Market Committee gathering have dented chances of a third round of quantitative easing by the Fed, although the release coming Wednesday is unlikely to illustrate that change.
“Even though the minutes are going to reflect they are leaving the door open, the odds have fallen since then because we’ve seen improvement in some of the data,” said Bill Stone, chief investment strategist at PNC Asset Management Group in Pittsburgh.
“We’re not falling apart; we’re not doing fabulously well either. You’d like to be more definitive, but there isn’t anything definitive,” said Nolte of recent U.S. economic reports.
Housing data later in the week could offer more direction, Nolte added.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 3.56 points, or 0.03%, to close at 13,271.64.
The S&P 500 Index SPX-0.0021% ended at 1,418.13, about flat compared with a close of 1,418.16 on Friday. Telecommunications were the hardest hit Monday and technology was the best performing of its 10 major industry sectors.
Coventry Health Care Inc.CVH+20.32% rallied 20% after Aetna Inc. AET+5.63% said it would purchase the medical-care supplier for about $5.6 billion. Shares of Aetna gained 5.%.
Apple Inc. AAPL+2.63% shares closed at a record of $665.15, up 2.6%.
At Friday’s close, Apple represented 4.73% of the S&P 500 index, with a market capitalization of $607.54 billion, according to Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC. The Nasdaq Composite COMP-0.01% fell 0.38 point to 3,076.21.
Decliners slightly outweighed advancers on the New York Stock Exchange, where nearly 551 million shares traded. Composite volume pulled within reach of 2.8 billion.
“The NYSE volume has fallen off a cliff, not just compared to other Augusts but compared to everything, but composite volume hasn’t changed all that much. It’s down from prior years, but less than 10%, while the NYSE volume is down 30% to 40%,” said Nolte.
Gold futures for December delivery /GCZ2+0.22% rose $3.60 to $1,623 an ounce, a two-month high.
The U.S. dollar 3DXY-0.09% declined against other global currencies, including the euro EURUSD-0.0688%. Treasury prices rose, with the yield on the benchmark 10-year note 10_YEAR-0.17% falling to 1.814%.Best Buy Co. BBY-10.41% tapped French restructuring expert Hubert Joly as its chief executive. Its shares fell 10% Monday after buyout talks with founder Richard Schulze floundered.
Meanwhile, “optimism was dealt a setback,” Stone said of the European Central Bank move to quell speculation about its planned bond-buying program, saying no decisions had been made.
