NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks gave up a healthy advance and closed slight- ly lower Tuesday as investors suffered another bout of anxiety over Presi- dent Barack Obama's plan to regulate banks. The Dow Jones indus- trial average, up 90 points in the early afternoon, closed with a loss of 2.57. The other major indexes were also down modestly. Uneasiness about Obama's plan to limit the size and trading operations of big banks pulled finan- cial stocks and then the entire market lower. News reports that Paul Volcker, the head of the President's Economic Recovery Advi- sory Board, would testify about the plan before Con- gress next week, con- tributed to the market's turnaround. The office of Sen. Christopher Dodd, D- Conn., said after the mar- ket closed that Volcker, a former Federal Reserve chairman, would appear before the Senate Banking Committee next Tuesday. The Dow fell 2.57, or less than 0.1 percent, to 10,194.29. The Standard & Poor's 500 index slid 4.61, or 0.4 percent, to 1,092.17. The Nasdaq composite index dropped 7.07, or 0.3 percent, to 2,203.73. Two stocks fell for every one that rose on the New York Stock Exchange. Consolidated volume rose to 4.8 billion shares from 4.5 billion shares Monday. The dollar rose against other major currencies Tuesday, while gold advanced. Crude oil fell 55 cents to $74.71 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Bond prices were mixed. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Trea- sury note, which moves opposite its price, was unchanged at 3.63 percent from late Monday. The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies fell 5.95, or 1 percent, to 612.16. 8B – Daily News – Wednesday, January 27, 2010 12600 Hwy 99E, Red Bluff Located 5 Miles from I-5 • 530-527-6483 Hrs: 9am-6pm Monday-Saturday Expires 2-02-10 Pork Shoulder BOSTON BUTT ROAST $ 1 29 lb.
