MARKET SNAPSHOT
Stocks rally back on hopes write-downs nearly over
Markets stumbled earlier as fund said it's close to collapse; dollar hits lows
By Nick Godt, MarketWatch
Last update: 4:31 p.m. EDT March 13, 2008
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- U.S. stocks rallied back from steep losses Thursday, with the Dow industrials recovering from a 235-point drop, after Standard & Poor's suggested banks might be finished with the bulk of write-downs linked to bad home loans.
The report helped the market recover from losses sparked by the potential collapse of a fund owned by Carlyle Group and another weak report on retail sales, which fueled concerns over recession.
"We started today with really bad news," said Paul Mendelsohn, chief investment strategist, at Windham Financial Services. "Then S&P came out with their report about being near an end to the subprime crisis. Who knows? We were deeply oversold and ready for a bounce, the S&P report was a trigger."
Crude prices fell back below $110 a barrel after earlier hitting a record above $111, taking some pressure off stocks.

"We're still in a bear market, but there are bear-market rallies," added Mendelsohn. "We're also getting closer to the end of the quarter and if somebody wants their portfolios to look good before then, this is the time to do it.

"Paulson didn't say anything new," said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at Jefferies. "We expect bold and decisive plans like we got from the Fed on Tuesday."

    Stocks Recoup Losses on S&P Forecast
    Thursday March 13, 1:51 pm ET
    By Tim Paradis, AP Business Writer
    Stocks Rebound From Steep Drop As S&P Forecasts End Is Near for Asset Write-Downs

     
    NEW YORK (AP) -- Wall Street recovered from an early plunge Thursday to trade higher after Standard & Poor's predicted financial companies are nearing the end of the massive asset write-downs that devastated the stock and credit markets for months.

    The S&P projection gave investors some optimism that the seemingly unrelenting fallout from the mortage and credit crisis might indeed come to an end. Standard & Poor's Ratings Services estimated that writedowns of subprime asset-backed securities could reach $285 billion globally, up from a previous $265 billion projection. Still, S&P's statement that "the end of write-downs is now in sight for large financial institutions" gave investors some hope.

    The statement enabled the Dow Jones industrial average to rebound. The blue chip index was trading up 31.02, or 0.26 percent, at 12,141.26 by early afternoon after being down more than 220 points earlier.

    "The S&P comment was a positive for the market because investors were relieved to think that the subprime problem may be behind us," said Al Goldman, chief market strategist at A.G. Edwards. "The question is whether investors will be relieved enough to continue to come in and buy what I think is a bear rally. I think the market has a good chance to feed on this news and go higher."

    But there still was a great deal of caution in the market, which on Wednesday had abandoned its initial euphoric response to a Federal Reserve plan to auction $200 billion in Treasurys to help alleviate the financial bind that investment banks have been in since the credit crisis began last year.

    The weakness of the U.S. dollar and strength in commodities prices also weighed on the market. The dollar dropped to fresh lows against the euro and fell below 100 yen during Asian trading Thursday, the weakest level for the greenback against the Japanese currency in 12 years. Gold surpassed the psychological benchmark of $1,000 an ounce for the first time, and crude oil briefly passed $111 a barrel.

    Broader market indexes also recovered from steep early losses. The S&P 500 index rose 5.65, or 0.43 percent, to 1,314.42, while the Nasdaq composite index rose 16.45, or 0.73 percent, at 2,260.32.

    Talk of regulatory changes for the mortgage industry Thursday did little to placate the market. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson outlined a plan to provide stronger oversight of mortgage lenders, whose lax standards are blamed for touching off the concerns about souring debt that have led to turmoil in the credit markets.

    It appeared that what investors are really looking for is proof that the market's pain, and the economy's, will end. The S&P forecast seemed to provide more of a balm than any regulatory changes could.

    The market was also concerned by more evidence of weak consumer spending. The Commerce Department reported that retail sales fell last month, after analysts predicted an increase.

    "Things just aren't good for the consumer, and thus, they're not good for Wall Street, said Kim Caughey, equity research analyst at Fort Pitt Capital Group.

    Meanwhile, no one is positive which companies and which investors are going to end up losing money if more funds collapse. "It is going to be difficult to see who has the Old Maid card. And time will tell," Caughey said.

    The Fed's Open Markets Committee meets next Tuesday and is widely expected to lower interest rates, with many analysts forecasting a drop of 0.50 percentage point. However, in the past few weeks investors have been questioning whether another rate cut will help the economy.

    Bond prices rose as stocks fell. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves opposite its price, rose to 3.47 percent from 3.44 percent late Wednesday.

    Thursday's stock decline follows moderate losses Wednesday and a 416-point rally Tuesday. Those sharp gains followed news of the plan by the Fed -- and coordinated with other major central banks -- to lubricate near-frozen credit markets with an infusion of as much as $200 billion.

    Analysts in the United States noted Wednesday that the U.S. housing market remains in tatters, while inflation is a growing threat to consumer spending that is already showing signs of weakness. While the Fed's plan to make more money available to financial institutions can help, it won't solve the many deepening economic problems in the United States.

    The dollar's slide is of particular concern because it is helping to send commodities prices including oil to greater highs -- in turn feeding the growth of inflation.

    Light, sweet crude was down 14 cents at $109.78 on the New York Mercantile Exchange, after briefly breaching $111 a barrel.

    In other economic findings, the Labor Department said the number of workers seeking unemployment benefits was unchanged last week. A government report released last week said employers cut payrolls by 63,000 in February -- the second straight month of losses -- and sent a wave of unease across Wall Street. Some economists regard back-to-back declines in monthly payrolls as a sign the economy won't be able to avoid recession.

    Advancing issues outnumbered decliners by about 8 to 7 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.05 billion shares.

    The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 11.76, or 1.76 percent, to 679.07.

    Overseas, Japan's Nikkei 225 index tumbled 3.3 percent to its lowest level in 2 1/2 years. Britain's FTSE 100 fell 2.11 percent, Germany's DAX index slid 2.60 percent, and France's CAC-40 lost 2.73 percent.

    u know...the deepest problem now is the Federal actions that Ben is taking...it doesnt seem to curb much of the market woes...instead it bring up the inflation...the weakening of dollar...

    it seems that that's really the worst case scenario probably happening...

    see this report found on Money CNN:

    The Fed's worst nightmare

    Ugly retail sales and a somber forecast from CFOs point to recession, but rising oil and gold prices and a weak dollar show inflation. What's Ben Bernanke to do?



    NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- It's days like today that will make many investors wish they stayed in bed.

    And they're not the only ones. Something tells me that Ben Bernanke and the rest of the Federal Reserve's policy-making committee would like to run and hide as well.

    Where to begin? Retail sales for February were shockingly weak, with sales falling 0.6% during the month compared to economists' forecasts of a 0.2% gain. Those numbers put dents in the argument that consumers would keep spending in the face of the housing downturn.

    According to the survey of more than 1,000 CFOs, conducted last week, three-quarters of the respondents said the economy is either in a recession already or will hit one this year, and nearly 90% of CFOs surveyed said they didn't think the economy would rebound until late 2009.

    So this means the Fed should slash interest rates at its next meeting on March 18, right? After all, according to federal funds futures, investors are pricing in a 72% chance of a three-quarters of a percentage point cut.

    But not so fast.

    Gold hit $1,000 an ounce for the first time ever Thursday morning. Oil is slouching towards $111 a barrel. And the dollar hit a 12-year low against the yen and a new record low against the euro. Can you say inflation?Actually, it's worse than mere inflation. The combination of rising commodity prices and the weakening growth forecast for the economy has people worried about 1970s style stagflation. I hope Bernanke can dig up a pair of old bell bottom pants.

    Economists are predicting a 0.3% rise in the headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) number and a 0.2% increase in the so-called core number, which excludes volatile food and energy costs.

    If the CPI figures are higher than expected, the Fed may have no choice but to disappoint Wall Street next week and only cut interest rates by a half-point, or perhaps even only by a quarter-point.

    A quick fix for the economy is not what's needed. The Fed has to ensure that its actions don't lead to the type of double-dip, or W-shaped recession, that some economists and market strategists are now talking about.

    so what you all are going to do now? sit tight and ride out the recession which last at least a year or sell now and buy later cheaper.

    Those counter that cant go down anymore will go down if recession comfirm.And stock price would be more than 60% over down from here.I think i suggest we sell and buy later.,can play those counter on play though.

    Luckily, have been selling on strenght for the last 2 months., no doubt do miss out some stock that soar.But still ended up lot better. good luck.DYODD

    Didn't the banks (rich) tried to lend monies to the people who cannot afford it(poor). It is now known to be call Sub-Prime. They try to make money out of the poor.

    The banks go further by listing this loan on Wall Street. And label it AAA investment grade.

    This is probably 10 times worst than the DOT-CON bubble.

    At least I do. It has been same for the last 4~5 rounds. Question here is if they can fixed it or not ? FED only have 3% to zero interest.  I guess the lesson here is NOT to rob the poor to give to the rich.

    According to Bloomberg News :The Federal Reserve plans to lend up to $200 billion of Treasury securities in exchange for debt including private mortgage-backed securities that have slumped in value as homeowners defaulted on their payments.
