dow2664 The Dow Jones Industrial Average , along with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 index, finished the opening trading session of the week on the negative side of break-even. The primary sources of negative energy in the marketplace last session stemmed from the ongoing debt crisis in Europe and the hit taken by major banks across the nation. Specifically, Bank of America dropped below $5 per share which was one of the lowest share values seen for the company in years. After news of this negative action spread, stocks spun lower for the day in the U.S. Prior to opening bell this morning though, futures for the DJIA , along with the Nasdaq and the S&P 500, were posting in the green. Global indices were mixed at this point. The Nikkei in Japan and the Hang Seng in Hong Kong closed higher, while the Shanghai Composite finished in the red. European stocks were trending mixed as well. As the trading session reached the mid-day mark in the U.S., the Dow Jones Industrial Average was posting green by 2.3 percent at 12036.64. The Nasdaq was posting green by 2.68 percent at 2590.65 and the S&P 500 was posting green by 2.51 percent at 1235.59. Frank Matto
