U.S. Stocks Rise, Giving Dow Biggest Two-Week Gain Since 2000

U.S. stocks rose, completing the Dow Jones Industrial Average’s best two-week rally since 2000, as energy producers climbed on a gain in oil and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said the central bank is “winding down” emergency measures established to end the financial crisis.

Exxon Mobil Corp. and ConocoPhillips advanced as oil and natural gas prices extended their weekly gain. Chubb Corp. jumped 6.5 percent, leading insurers higher, after raising its 2009 forecast. Microsoft Corp. and Amazon.com Inc. retreated more than 7 percent after quarterly results missed estimates, breaking the Nasdaq Composite Index’s 12-day winning streak that was the longest since 1992.

1. I'd better hear this coming from Lou Dobbs' mouth on Monday.
Or I might think he's a Birfer, an Obama-hater, or a Xenophobic.....oh, wait....

4. Oh please, didn't you
get the memo? :sarcasm:


Today is devoted to Sarah Palin as she attends farewell parties and picnics all over Alaska. NBC has even sent Nora O'Donnell up there to cover events live (really).

5. And when you are done take a drink to celebrate and go to read
what Robert Reich says in his column. Manipulation is a bitch.

9. If stocks rise, my 401k gets some of its money back...
