  • Market recap: Stocks rebounded from yesterday's steep slide, driven by strong earnings reports from Coca-Cola and J&J and March housing starts which rose 7%. Consumer staples and materials - Monday's biggest laggard - led the advance. Gold prices pushed ahead by almost 2% following a two-session loss of more than $200/oz., but crude oil futures finished flat[View news story]
    So was it the Fed selling stocks yesterday that drove down the market in the first place??

  • The Brown/Vitter bill being rolled out in Congress is essentially Armageddon to the TBTF banks, says Goldman, seeing it as mandating another $1.1T in equity for the banking system. Banks would need 12 years of earnings to build this amount organically, though the bill would give just 5 - say goodbye to lending. Break up the banks? BAC, C, JPM, and WFC all have multiple divisions with more than $400M in assets - the level at which the bill gets tough on lenders. [View news story]

  • Market recap: The Dow notched a new record close and the S&P 500 fell just two points shy of its own highs, as investors eyed the start of earnings season and firm economic readings from overseas. Energy and materials were top performers, drawing support from Chinese inflation that slowed more than expected. Gold settled at its highest level in more than a week; crude oil rose on global supply concerns. [View news story]
