La Bolsa de Valores de Lima BVL con muy fuerte derrumbe el lunes 25/04/2011

La Bolsa de Valores de Lima (BVL) presentó indicadores negativos al cierre de la sesión de hoy, con pérdidas de 3.31 por ciento para el Indice General, como una respuesta a la incertidumbre electoral que persiste en el país.

El Indice General de la BVL, el más representativo de la bolsa local, bajó hoy 3.31 por ciento al pasar de 18,798 a 18,176 puntos.

El Indice Selectivo de la plaza bursátil limeña, que está conformado por las 15 acciones más negociadas en el mercado, retrocedió 3.46 por ciento al pasar de 25,989 a 25,090 puntos.

El Indice Nacional de Capitalización (INCA), conformado por las 20 acciones más líquidas que cotizan en la BVL, se depreció 2.92 por ciento.

En la sesión de hoy el monto negociado en acciones se situó en 100.91 millones de nuevos soles en 2,026 operaciones de compra y venta.

Entre las principales acciones cuyas cotizaciones cayeron en la BVL están las de Sienna Gold (-10.26 por ciento), Gloria (-10.06 por ciento), Compañía Minera Santa Luisa (-0.09 por ciento), Empresa Siderúrgica del Perú (-8.80 por ciento) y Compañía Minera Atacocha (-8.77 por ciento).

El trader de Renta Variable, de Andes Securities Sociedad Agente de Bolsa (SAB), Ernesto Ferrand, señaló que la tendencia a la baja de la BVL se debe a las encuestas dadas a conocer en la víspera que ha provocado una tendencia vendedora de inversionistas locales.

"Son inversionistas naturales, por el monto y el volumen de las operaciones, y algunos fondos que buscan rescatar sus inversiones", declaró a la agencia Andina.

Señaló que las jornadas de los próximos días serán volátiles con tendencia a la baja y algunas recuperaciones, en un contexto electoral.

"Las Administradoras de Fondos de Pensiones (AFP) están comprando acciones, las AFP dan algo de estabilidad al mercado cuando las cosas no están bien", señaló.

Los mercados regionales cerraron mixtos, al igual que la Bolsa de Valores de Nueva York (NYSE).

El índice industrial Dow Jones de la bolsa neoyorquina cayó 0.21 por ciento, el indicador tecnológico Nasdaq subió 0.20 por ciento y el índice Standard & Poor's bajó 0.16 por ciento.

Prince William and Kate Middleton’s Unique Fragrance

Even though Prince William and Kate Middleton are asking guests to make donations in lieu of gifts for their wedding on Friday, April 29th, the couple will still receive a few special treats. One is from master fragrance specialist Roja Dove of Harrods Haute Parfumerie, who commissioned renowned perfumer Clive Christian to create a unique his-and-hers set of his infamous No. 1 The World's Most Expensive Perfume exclusively for the royal couple. "The fragrances are placed side-by-side in a piano black case, with the royal coat of arms hand-embroidered onto the case," Victoria Christian, brand ambassador and daughter of Clive, told InStyle of the newlywed gift. "The presentation is truly a fitting tribute to the royal couple, as Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were fans of the perfumery." While the pair will receive a bottle each of No. 1 in hand-cut crystal bottles bearing their respective initials etched in gold, the juice inside is the same as Christian's already-on-sale fragrance, available at SaksFifthAvenue.com for $865 (fitting for its name!).

Men's jewelry casts a line into fishhook fashion

While researching the resurgence of tie bars for an article in Sunday's Image section, another men's jewelry and accessories trend caught my eye — fishhooks.

This particular sea-faring symbol came to my attention while chatting with Darren Gold, co-owner of Alpha Gear for Gents on Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood, who told me that instead of bright, shiny bling, the type of things that were resonating with his customers were wooden bracelets and other items that had a heritage vibe.

“Everything is seen through that vintage lens,” he says. “Like a weathered, vintage fishhook on a belt that looks like you could have pulled it out of your grandfather's closet. It fits in with the whole heritage clothing trend — that remind you of of workmen or ship captains.”

Gold says the maritime motif, which dovetails (or, perhaps, fishtails) perfectly with the nautical trends in apparel, is starting to make waves.

“The fishhook  thing is so strong I'm carrying a fishhook necklace and a fishhook belt — from two completely different companies,” he said. (The necklace he's referring to is from the spring 2011 “Port of Call” collection from menswear and accessories brand CXXVI, the belt by Miansai.)

Gold's observation may help explain one of the more perplexing fashion statements I'd seen at Coachella; the yachting cap. That distinctive piece of two-tone headgear with a white crown and black or navy visor emblazoned with yachting regalia could be seen bobbing and weaving through the crowd by the boatload.

I'd been hoping that was simply a showing of support for the Portland, Ore., based band Yacht – one of the acts performing on Day 1 of the three-day music festival since I don't think I've seen a single one in public since the “Captain and Tennille” variety show was on the air in 1977 (it was the signature hat worn by Daryl “Captain” Dragon).

And while I'm happy to see the fishhook hardware trend catch its sea legs, to me the yachting cap feels a little, well, overboard.

Not to mention that every time I see one I have the inexplicable urge to start singing “Muskrat Love.”
