A Reality Check May Slow
Record Gains: U.S. Stocks
Outlook
By most accounts, the
rally in U.S. stocks is
humming along nicely:
Corporate earnings are
meeting expectations and
the Dow Jones Industrial
Average keeps rising to
headline-making records.
Time for a reality check
-- and a slowdown in the
bull market, some
investors and analysts
say. Earnings are on
target because everyone
has been aiming low.
Profit from operations for
Standard & Poor's 500
Index companies grew just
3.3 percent in the first
quarter from the
year-earlier quarter,
according to First Call
Corp., which tracks profit
reports. That figure,
based on the 74 percent of
the S&P 500 that have
reported so far, hasn't
been lower since the first
quarter of 1991. The Dow
Jones Industrial Average
on Friday fell 78.71, or
0.9 percent, to 9064.62,
its third straight loss.
