Stocks stay steady
There was not much change in the major indexes Wednesday. The market will continue "to be driven by rates and headline news coming out of the subprime sector" over the next week, said Jim Herrick, head trader at Robert W. Baird. Crude-oil futures ended trading up $1.68 at a record settlement price of $79.91. Energy stocks, and those affected by oil prices, were big movers on the day. ConocoPhillips gained 1.6%, while Tesoro Petroleum was up 2%.
