October 17, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Stocks are trading mostly flat right now after starting the day lower. A better than expected housing starts report pushed stocks higher this morning, but big tech stocks, Intel and IBM, are weighing the market down. Housing starts jumped 15% in September to a seasonally adjusted 872,000 units, the quickest rate since 2008. Economists were expecting an increase to 770,000.
