After The Bell Market Commentary
According to Bernard Schmitt, "On Friday, the markets closed mixed as oil prices climbed above $55 a barrel and new home sales plunged in 2006. New-home sales rose 4.8 percent in December. The Commerce Department reported Orders for durable goods jumped by 3.1% in December, led by stronger demand for airplanes and capital equipment. This week will see significant earnings-related activity. Coming up on this week's agenda will be the Fed's first meeting of the year. Strong economic reports seemed to have dashed hopes of an interest rate cut. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 15.54 points, or 0.12 percent, to end at 12,487.02. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index slipped 1.72 points, or 0.12 percent, to finish at 1,422.18. But the Nasdaq Composite Index inched up 1.25 points, or 0.05 percent, to close at 2,435.49.
