29 January 2002, 11:42 U.S. Stocks Close Little Changed Monday
U.S. share prices ended little changed Monday ahead of new earnings, the Federal
Reserve's policy meeting, and key economic data. The Dow Industrials
closed up 25.67 or 0.26% at 9865.75, while the Nasdaq Composite was up
6.21 or 0.32% at 1943.91. Volumes were light. Dealers reported little
action in the session. Soft results from American Express pressured the
market early Monday. But online travel shares were hot on reports of
strong bookings in the sector. GM and Ford both gained on a brokerage
recommendation that cited still strong consumer demand for vehicles.
