Stocks continued to struggle during the last trading session in the U.S.
Investors may be happy to see September finally end. It was a tough month
overall for the marketplace and the last trading session ultimately ended as
most days did, in negative territory. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed
out the last session negative by over 240 points. The DJIA finished the day red
at 10,913.38. The general worries pertaining to the economic slowdown are
growing with each passing day and the cumulative effect has been depressing. The
third quarter in the U.S. was the worst quarter since the last recessive period
in the U.S. Many investors in Wall Street are now feeling more concerned about
the double dip into another recessive period. There is even talk that we are in
the midst of the recessive progression currently, and some even think that we
never really left the last recessive period in the U.S. Just Friday, the CNN/ORC
International Poll suggested that an overwhelming number of Americans, 90
percent, believe that the economic conditions are currently poor. The negative
sentiment has been a burden for individual Dow components. General Electric is
one of the companies that is included in the Dow and GE stock was one that fell
into the red as of last session close. GE was lower by 4.04 percent according to
MSN Money stock quotes. General Electric finished the day red at 15.22. Previous
close for GE was 15.86. Frank Matto
