Today might have started out as a buying binge by bargain hunters, but the existing home sales drop was large enough and the NABE call of a slow return to employment growth offered no significant promise of a significant economic improvement over what we have already witnessed. The Bernanke confirmation outcome is less uncertain than it seemed on Friday, although this too was a continued thought in the back of the minds of even those who bought up shares higher today. Here are today's unofficial closing bell levels:Dow 10,201.85 +28.87 (0.28%)
S&P 500 1,096.75 +4.99 (0.46%)
Nasdaq 2,210.80 +5.51 (0.25%)
