Monday Wrap-Up

Monday turned out to be a good day on Wall Street. The Dow finished the day up 59.19 points, while NASDAQ gained 7 points. Verizon is back on top in the fight for MCI, as the board approved a $26 per share offer. Oil prices eased over $50 per barrel to finish the day at $50.92, but the increase did not dampen the start of the May week. Meanwhile, my husband has been calling all day to report gasoline prices on his travels. He's such a romantic!
