MarketWatch.com Tues. 3:58 pm by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks
extended gains into a third day Tuesday, with the S&P 500 index hitting 1,400 for the first time since May, on thinking the U.S. recovery would survive Europe and other pitfalls.A Federal Reserve president calls for the launch of additional steps to stimulate the U.S. economy.“The environment has changed for a lot of reasons, but the most important is investors generally came to the conclusion that although the risks are fairly substantial, neither the fiscal cliff nor the European contraction is going to derail the U.S. recovery. It’s going to continue, albeit it at an anemic pace,” said Hugh Johnson, chairman of Hugh Johnson Advisors.“The odds are very strong that as incompetent as they are in Washington, they’ll postpone the tax increases and spending cuts that are pre-scheduled for the end of the year, and although there is a contraction in Europe that is hurting U.S. exports and showing up in the earnings of many companies, that it’s not big enough to cause a recession here, or have a serious impact,” said Johnson. The benchmark indexes rose for a third session, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA +0.39% climbing as many as 98 points, and lately up 61.15 points, or 0.5%, at 13,178.6, with 21 of its 30 components rising.Blue-chip decliners included Pfizer Inc. PFE -2.12% and Johnson & Johnson JNJ -0.84% , which halted most efforts at devising an Alzheimer’s drug following a second drug-trial failure. The S&P 500 index SPX +0.51% added 8.22 points, or 0.6%, to 1,402.45, with energy pacing gains that had the index surpassing 1,400 for the first time since early May.A close above 1,405 would be notable, given that’s where the index closed on May 1, and “we haven’t been there since,” said Randy Frederick, managing director of active trading and derivatives at Charles Schwab.“If we close above 1,405, then we’re going to head higher and take out the yearly closing high of 1,419,” he added.

The Nasdaq Composite COMP +0.87% climbed 27.36 points, or 0.9%, to 3,017.27, positioning it for its first finish above 3,000 since May 3.For every stock falling nearly two advanced on the New York Stock Exchange, where composite volume neared 3.2 billion as of 3:45 p.m. Eastern time. Nasdaq composite volume cleared 1.6 billion.Treasury prices fell, with the 10-year note’s yield 10_YEAR +3.63% recently at 1.63%, while the dollar DXY -0.01% fell against other global currencies, including the euro EURUSD +0.0171% .Crude prices CLU2 +1.39% rose 1.6% to close at 93.67 a barrel, and gold futures GCZ2 -0.12% fell 0.2% to finish at $1,612.70 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange.Shares of Fossil Inc. FOSL +31.49% rallied after the accessories maker projected 2012 adjusted profit above expectations.Chesapeake Energy Corp. CHK +9.49% also gained after the natural-gas supplier hiked its production forecast.Despite hurdles both cultural and financial, a growing number of Spanish people are setting up their own businesses as avenues to more traditional career success narrow.Federal Reserve Bank of Boston President Eric Rosengren said in an interview that the Fed should purchase more bonds. On Monday, a spokesperson for German Chancellor Angela Merkel voiced support for a European Central Bank bond-purchasing plan. “I’m shocked that this market has continued to push higher after the huge move we had last week. It could be this final statement by [ECB President Mario] Draghi. The immediate reaction was subdued, and it took time for people to digest, but it takes out prospects of a calamity,” said Frederick at Charles Schwab.“Our Fed is in a holding pattern,” said Frederick, who said he believes Friday’s nonfarm-payrolls report lessened chances of a third round of quantitative easing by the Fed, at least in the near term.On Tuesday, the Labor Department reported job openings in June rose to a four-year high, signaling hiring could pick up in the latter half of the year.“But Bernanke, like Draghi, has said, ‘We’re only going to let things deteriorate so far before we step in.’ So we’re in a sideways holding pattern, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing for the market,” Frederick said.
