Oil waffled near unchanged and ended lower as expectations for supply drops in tomorrow’s holiday delayed inventory report were offset by worries over weak demand.

 

The U.S. dollar index fell as the euro rose again on easing sovereign debt concerns.

 

Treasuries rose as the Dow, Nasdaq, and S&P fell on mostly disappointing earnings reports.

 

Among the big names making news in the market today were American Express, AMR, Citigroup, Cargill, Wells Fargo, IBM, and Goldman Sachs.
