Update on U.S. Stocks
« on: January 24, 2010, 01:45:05 AM »
U.S. stocks extended losing streak for a third session on Friday as upbeat earnings results failed to boost market sentiment hit by tighter bank regulation.

U.S. stocks suffered their worst one-day decline in nearly three months as bank shares tumbled after President Obama proposed to impose new limits on the size of the nation's biggest banks as well as restrict their risk-taking abilities.

Investor seemed to be rattled in recent sessions on concerns of China's tightening monetary policy and uncertainty about the effect of Obama's bank regulations.

Even as most corporate earnings beat expectations, few of them succeeded in lifting market sentiment.

General Electric reported before the opening bell that the company's net profit fell 19 percent, better than expected.

Search engine giant Google also posted fourth-quarter earnings that easily topped analyst estimates after Thursday's close.

The Dow Jones lost 216.90, or 2.09 percent, to 10,172.98. Broader indexes also tumbled. The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 24.72, or 2.21 percent, to 1,091.76 and the Nasdaq plunged 60.41, or 2.67 percent, to 2,205.69. (PNA/Xinhua)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
