Today's economic data came in largely as expected, but that failed to make much difference as the earnings front is a disaster and as more trouble is lurking at the major banking institutions. The good news is that shares were mixed rather than just down across the board. Here are today's unofficial closing bell levels:

DJIA: 8,212.49 (+12.35)
S&P500: 843.73 (+1.11)
NASDAQ: 1,511.84 (+22.20)
