August ends mixed, flattish – 8/31/10

0

A gain in the Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index wasn’t enough to make Wall Streeters go on a buying binge. Instead, choppy trading on Tuesday resulted in a mixed session that was close to flat. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose five points, or 0.1%, to 10,015. The S&P 500 was down a bit and the Nasdaq Composite up a bit. Broadcasting stocks were also mixed.


The RBR Radio Index was up 3.870, or 1.7%, to 231.824.

The TVBR Television Index was down 0.946, or 0.6%, to 163.229.
