freeus.......regret I cannot be there to watch you boggle...<g>.........t......Dawn Patrol November 03, 1999 by Loren Fox A.M. Update: U.S. stocks were poised for a higher opening Wednesday morning, as S&P futures were up. Overseas, Asian stocks rose modestly, and European shares were slightly lower. Sometimes a psychological milestone becomes a formidable hurdle. Tuesday, the technology-rich Nasdaq composite index crept over 3,000, but then fell back. It's clear that more than one attempt will be needed to scale this peak. Still, technology shares continue to have an underlying positive momentum, despite bouts of profit-taking. This is sometimes called "consolidation," which implies that the market is pausing to gather its strength before pushing further upward. The Nasdaq managed a 0.5 percent rise Tuesday, even with the weight of profit-taking on Internet stocks. Meanwhile, the bond market continues to be bullish for stocks. The benchmark 30-year Treasury bond, which is a proxy for interest rates, ended Tuesday slightly lower at 6.14 percent. That's its lowest level in nearly a month. On the economic front, Wall Street is waiting for Friday's important release of monthly unemployment data and hourly wages. Of some note before then is Wednesday's 10 a.m. EST release of leading economic indicators by the Conference Board, a business research group. At the same time, the government reports monthly factory orders; economists estimate they fell by 0.5 percent in September.
