Friday, January 27, 2012 – Daily News 5B A brief morning rally Thursday pushed the Dow Jones industrial average above its highest close since the financial crisis of 2008, but dis- appointing economic data tem- pered traders' optimism later in the day, and stocks finished lower. Solid news on factory orders and strong earnings from U.S. manufacturers, highlighting one of the economy's bright spots, helped the market open higher. The Dow rose 85 points.

Main Street, Ste 10 Red Bluff, CA 96080 CASE NO. 14773 Publish: January 13, 20 & 27, 2012 Obama-Brewer friction on display on tarmac tiff GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Arizona Gov. Jan Brew- er says she meant no disrespect when she pointed a fin- ger at President Barack Obama during an intense dis- cussion on an airport tarmac. But the Republican gov- ernor says the Democratic president showed disrespect for her by abruptly ending their conversation. The brief encounter — out of earshot of observers but captured on camera — was a highly visible demon- stration of the verbal and legal skirmishing that has reg- ularly occurred between Brewer and Obama's adminis- tration over illegal immigration and other issues. Airport arrivals for presidents normally involve mere pleasantries between those involved, but Brewer and Obama have a history. And part of that history is what apparently got things going, according to accounts pro- vided by Brewer and the White House. Brewer said that during their talk, she invited Obama to visit Arizona to hear about her administration's achievements and to visit the U.S.-Mexico border, which has been a point of friction between the two because of illegal immigration issue. Obama then said Brewer's recently published book mischaracterized a 2011 White House meeting between them. Brewer said in an interview Thursday, at another Phoenix-area airport, that she talks a lot with her hands and that her pointing a finger at Obama during their conversation wasn't disrespectful. ''I respect the office of the president,'' she said. ''I redbluffdailynews.com/jobs D NEWSAILY RED BLUFF TEHAMACOUNTY was there to welcome him.'' She said she was grateful for the visit and intended to talk to him about the state's accomplishments. But she said she was ''taken aback by his comments'' when he said he wasn't happy with how her book described their White House meeting. Immediately after the meeting, Brewer had said it was cordial, but her book said Obama lectured Brewer in the Oval Office and that she felt he was condescend- ing toward her. ''It is what it is. I proceeded to say that to him, and he chose to walk away from me,'' she said Thursday. Doug Cote, chief market strate- gist with ING Investment Man- agement. The government reported early Thursday orders to facto- ries for long-lasting manufac- tured goods increased in Decem- ber for the second straight month, and a key measure of business investment rose solidly. That strong demand was apparent in quarterly earnings reports from U.S. manufacturers. 3M stock closed 1.3 percent higher after its fourth-quarter profit beat Wall Street's esti- mates. Caterpillar, the world's biggest heavy equipment maker, rose 2.1 percent, the most of the 30 companies in the Dow, after beating analysts' estimates last quarter. The company expects to do the same this year as global demand remains high. Later in the day, the govern- ment reported an unexpected drop in new home sales in December, capping the worst year for home sales since record- keeping began in 1963. A private gauge of future economic activi- ty also grew more slowly than expected. 3M and Caterpillar led the gains for the Dow. AT&T dragged the average lower, falling 2.5 percent after its earn- ings missed Wall Street's fore- casts. AT&T depends heavily on the Apple iPhone but recently lost its exclusive rights to sell it in the U.S. The Dow's post-crisis high during the trading day was 12,928.45, reached May 2, 2011. It traded as high as 12,841.95 on Thursday. The average would need to rise about 11 percent to get to its record high close of 14,164.53, reached on Oct. 9, 2007. The Standard & Poor's 500 closed down 7.63 points, or 0.6 percent, at 1,318.43. It was dragged lower by volatile finan- cial companies and telecommu- nications firms including AT&T. Its post-crisis peak was 1,370.58, also set May 2, 2011. The Nasdaq shed 13.03 points, or 0.5 percent, to close at 2,805.28. Stocks had their highest close in eight months Wednesday after the Federal Reserve said it plans to keep interest rates extremely low until late 2014 to encourage lending and investment and sup- port the economic recovery. The yield on the 10-year Trea- sury note fell to 1.93 percent late Thursday from 1.99 percent late Wednesday. The prospect of more bond-buying by the Fed helped make Treasurys more attractive. A bond's yield falls as demand for it increases. Among the other U.S. compa- nies making big moves after reporting quarterly earnings: — Time Warner Cable Inc. rose 7.8 percent after the compa- ny reported earnings far above analysts' estimates. It also raised its dividend 17 percent to 56 cents per share and announced plans to buy back more of its own stock. — United Continental Hold- ings, parent of United and Conti- nental airlines, surged 6.3 per- cent. Its fourth-quarter loss nar- rowed, its adjusted earnings were more than double what analysts had expected, and the cost of integrating the two companies fell. — Netflix soared 22.1 per- cent, the most of any stock in the S&P 500, after the video stream- ing and DVD-by-mail company reported a huge gain in cus- tomers and a bigger fourth-quar- ter profit than analysts had expected. — Colgate-Palmolive rose 1.9 percent after saying it will raise prices in the U.S. for the first time in years to cover higher costs for materials. The compa- ny's profit declined last quarter, but core sales in emerging mar- kets were much stronger. ✓✓✓✓
