Todays Stock Market Trending News: Global investor worry continues to pressure
market index trends. Each day that passed without a plan in place to avoid debt
default in Greece fueled volatility and uncertain market trends. The increasing
threat dropped stock action in noteworthy fashion during the last trading
session in the U.S. Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq, S&P 500 Stock Index
Close Review: The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell lower last session by almost
90 points and closed the final day of last week at 12,801.23. The Nasdaq dropped
23.35 points and closed out the final session of last week at 2,903.88. The S&P
500 finished the last session in the red by 9.31 points and closed the day at
1,342.64. All three primary indices dropped into the red on the last trading
session of the week and the negative close pushed the indices red for the last
week overall. The DJIA closed the week lower by about .5 percent, as did the S&P
500. The Nasdaq dropped lower for the last week of trading by about .8 percent.
Although the major indices finished the last week on the negative side of
break-even, U.S. indices are still in positive position overall this year.
Investors will open the week by reviewing news out of the eurozone. Leaders in
Greece met over the weekend and made additional attempts to reach a deal on
austerity measures. Lawmakers in Greece voted early Monday to approve another
round of austerity measures. The deal passed Parliament earlier this morning in
a 199-74 vote. Frank Matto
