Tuesday Close

Markets were mixed today, with the Dow ending in (slightly) in the negative territory. Really, pretty flat for ole DJ. NASDAQ gained about 1/3 of a percent, and the S&P 500 was up slightly. Technology still seems to be holding up, but some old line companies are reporting good numbers, too. Pepsi reported good earnings, showing that, while the soft drink business is "soft," the snack business is getter fatter! DJ -5.83 NASDAQ +7.72 S&P 500 +2.77
