INSTANT VIEW/US stocks at session lows after NAPM
NEW YORK, June 1 (Reuters) - Wall Street stocks reached new session lows after the National Association of Purchasing Management reported its index of manufacturing activity rose to 55.2 from a 52.8 level in April.

Economists polled by Reuters, on average, had expected May NAPM to rise to a 53.4 level. The prices paid component of the index rose to 52.2 from 49.9 in April.

Following are analysts comments on the report:

JAMES VOLK, CO-DIRECTOR OF INSTITUTIONAL TRADING AT D.A. DAVIDSON & CO.

''The NAPM was higher than expected plus you've got pressure on the futures. The prices paid component was one more reason they are hitting the bonds.''
