Watch for coupon ad in this paper Tech earnings help stocks end week with solid gain Wall Street Caterpillar Inc. fell nearly 6 percent after the heavy equipment maker earned less than analysts were expecting last quarter, partly because of the earthquake and tsunami disaster in Japan. The company is seen as a bellwether for the global economy because it sells construction and min- ing machinery all over the world. The disappointing results from Caterpillar and a con- tinuing deadlock over raising the U.S. borrowing limit capped the stock market’s gains. Overseas markets rose after European leaders reached a deal late Thursday aimed at containing the region’s debt crisis. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 43.25 points, or 0.3 percent, to 12,681.16. Even with the decline, the Dow gained 1.6 percent for the week. It has finished three out of the last four weeks higher than where it started. The broader Standard & Poor’s 500 index gained 1.22, or 0.1 percent, to 1,345.02. It finished the week with a gain of 2.2 percent. Energy, technology and consumer discretionary com- panies were the only three of the 10 industries tracked by the S&P 500 that rose. That was still enough to push the broad market index higher. Consumer discretionary companies include retailers like Amazon Inc. and restaurant chains like McDonalds Corp. McDonald’s rose 2 percent, the most of any stock in the Dow average, after its income and revenue came in higher than analysts were expecting due to strong sales in Europe. Technology stocks rose broadly after Advanced Micro Devices Inc. reported strong second-quarter earnings and said its new computer graphics chip was selling well. The Nasdaq composite index rose 24.40 points, or 0.9 percent, to 2,858.83. AMD jumped 19 percent. Flash memory card maker SanDisk Corp. rose 10 percent after its earnings rose sharply. Microsoft Corp. gained 1.6 percent after beating analyst’s income estimates.

Traders kept close watch on negotiations in Washing- ton over a deal to raise the nation’s debt ceiling ahead of an Aug. 2 deadline. The impasse has overshadowed an agreement in Europe Thursday to give Greece a second financial lifeline and broaden the powers of a regional bailout fund. Concerns are spreading that the U.S. debt ceiling won’t be raised before the deadline, said Brian Gendreau, mar- ket strategist for Cetera Financial Group. ‘‘But the back- ground is a growing economy and fairly strong earnings news.’’ Strong earnings from Apple Inc., Coca-Cola Co. and IBM Corp. helped send stocks higher this week. The Dow gained 202 points on Tuesday, its biggest one-day jump of the year, after President Obama backed a proposal by six senators that would cut the country’s debt by $3.7 trillion over the next decade and raise the nation’s debt ceiling. Rising and falling shares were about even on the New York Stock Exchange. Volume was lighter than average at 3.3 billion shares. State investigates 6 possible THIS WEEK OPEN HOUSE heat-related deaths FRESNO (AP) — California officials say they are investigating six possible heat-related deaths, including two cases of two farmworkers who collapsed while har- vesting crops. A spokeswoman for the state Division of Occupa- tional Safety and Health said Thursday her agency is reviewing whether a 47-year-old worker in Blythe died because he was operating a tractor to harvest can- taloupes in 102-degree heat on July 7. Spokeswoman Erika Monterroza says it’s also investigating the April death of a 56-year-old farmworker who was breaking corn in 84-degree heat in Imperial County. Other cases under investigation involve a drilling crew floorman, a police officer, a temporary laborer and a grading foreman. All died in June. In all six cases, coroners have not confirmed the cause of death. Oh Snap!
