Stocks are rising from their lows this morning but the major stock indices are still negative on the day. The Dow is down 4 points, the Nasdaq is down 13 points and the S&P is down 5 points. Investors are uneasy today as they begin to doubt whether or not anything will get done at the European summit later this week. “This is still a headline-driven market and when confidence is shook, borrowers will continue to sit on the sidelines,” said Kevin Brungardt, chairman of RoundPoint Financial Group. “Europe is driving this market and if they are unable to contain the contagion, then that hampers our ability to diminish the unemployment rate and diminish our ability to grow.”
