11/1/12 Thurs. 4:25 MarketWatch by Deborah Levine & Polya Lesova says U.S. stocks started Nov. strong due to good news from US & China that the global economic recovery remains on track.The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA+1.04% advanced 136.16 points, or 1%, to end at 13,232.62, with only three of its 30 components losing ground. It rose as high as 13,273.71 intraday.
Glimpses of Sandy's impact on business
emerge as airlines and hotels report lost revenue while builders of
infrastructure like power lines say repair work could boost their
bottom lines. This is the blue-chip index’s largest point gain since
Sept. 13. The S&P 500 index SPX+1.09%
gained 15.43 points, or 1.1%, to 1,427.59, with industrials and
information technology the top gainers among its 10 major industry
groups. The Nasdaq Composite COMP+1.44%
climbed 42.83 points, or 1.4%, to 3,020. Advancers outnumbered
decliners by a three-to-one ratio on the New York Stock Exchange.
“The
data still tells me we’re in a modest growth and modest inflation
economy going into next year,”said Scott Wren, senior equity strategist
at Wells Fargo Advisors. Still, he said some caution is warranted as
the day’s outsized moves come after a pullback in recent weeks, with
Friday bringing the government’s monthly employment report. Also, the
presidential election on Tuesday will be key in how the U.S. will
tackle a package of expiring tax breaks and spending measures that
threaten to push the economy into a recession. “I don’t think you can
read too much into this particular bounce but we want clients
positioned for a continuation of the recovery,” Wren said. “I don’t want
to read too much into the day’s move because tomorrow could erase it
with one fell swoop or build on it.” The economic data was mostly positive on Thursday. Shortly after the market opened, the Conference Board said its consumer-confidence index increased to 72.2 in October from a downwardly revised 68.4 in September. The Institute for Supply Management’s index of purchasing managers edged up to in October, with the data exceeding Wall Street expectations.“We have improving U.S. economic data across the board, juxtaposed against worries about the fiscal cliff,” said Art Hogan, market strategist at Lazard Capital Markets, of reports illustrating improved confidence and “mildly better” manufacturing data. The day began on a higher note after better-than-expected economic data from China, which was “followed up with better reports from ADP and jobless claims,” Hogan said. Employment-related data released before markets opened also pointed in a good direction. Payroll-processing firm ADP said 158,000 private-sector jobs were created in October. Separately, the government said that weekly applications for unemployment benefits fell by 9,000 to a seasonally adjusted 363,000. “Nothing we heard today would suggest we’re going to see a real significant acceleration in the economy or significant acceleration in hiring,” Wren said.
The labor report Friday will probably be viewed more for how it will affect the election, with particular attention to any rise or fall in the unemployment rate, since the general public tends to focus more on that, he said. In Asia, two Chinese manufacturing surveys showed signs of economic recovery. Shares of Exxon Mobil Corp. XOM+0.47% , a Dow component, gained 0.5% even after it reported a 7% decline in third-quarter earnings due to lower production.
Top gainers in the Dow included Bank of America Corp. BAC+0.41% , Caterpillar Inc.CAT+3.35% and Microsoft Corp.MSFT+3.42% The stock market reopened on Wednesday after a two-day shutdown due to Hurricane Sandy; the major U.S. stock indexes declined in October, posting their first monthly loss since May. The S&P 500 fell 2% in October.
