Body bag count beats analysts' expectations

Authorities said Friday that their first systematic sweep of the city found far fewer bodies than expected, suggesting that the death toll may not be the catastrophic 10,000 feared.

"I think there's some encouragement in what we've found in the initial sweeps that some of the catastrophic deaths that some people predicted may not have occurred," said Terry Ebbert, New Orleans' homeland security chief.

Ebbert declined to give a new estimate of the dead.

Wall Street analysts are encouraged that more living will be available to use the new FEMA debit cards.
