Writer 39 minutes ago NEW
YORK
A
stunning reshaping of the Wall
Street landscape sent stocks down sharply Monday, but the
pullback appeared relatively orderly perhaps because investors were unsurprised
by the demise of Lehman
Brothers Holdings Inc. and relieved by a takeover of Merrill
Lynch & Co.
The Dow Jones industrial average
fell 250 points, a number that has become almost commonplace over the past year
amid the tumoil in the financial sector. Bond prices soared as investors sought
the safety of government debt.
Stocks also posted big
losses in markets across much of the globe as investors absorbed Lehman's
bankruptcy filing and Merrill
Lynch's forced sale to Bank of America for $50 billion in stock.
While those companies' situations had reached some resolution, the market
remained anxious about American
International Group Inc., which asking the Federal Reserve for
emergency funding. The world's largest
insurance company plans to announce a major restructuring Monday.
The swift developments
are the biggest yet in the 14-month-old credit crises that stems from now toxic
subprime mortgage debt.
Investors are worried
that trouble at AIG and the bankruptcy
filing by Lehman, felled by $60 billion in bad debt and a dearth
of investor confidence, will touch off another series of troubles for banks and
financial institutions that may be forced to further write down the value of
their own debt assets. Wall
Street had been hopeful six months ago that the collapse of Bear Stearns would
mark the darkest day of the credit crisis.
AIG's troubles a week
after its stock dropped 45 percent are worrisome for some investors because of
the company's enormous balance sheet and the risks that troubles with that
companies finances could spill over to the companies with which it does
business. AIG, one of the 30 stocks that make up the Dow industrials, fell
$7.74, or 64 percent, to $4.40 Monday as investors worried that it would be the
subject of downgrades from credit ratings agencies.
Jeffrey
Mortimer, chief investment officer at Charles Schwab Investment Management in San
Francisco,
said stocks' losses aren't steeper because the market expected Lehman would
find a buyer or declare bankruptcy.
This is showing that
this was not completely unexpected," he said, of Lehman. He added that the
Merrill deal removes one possible source of concern for investors. "This
may have taken a player who might have been next out of the target zone."
In midday trading, the
Dow fell 256.72, or 2.25 percent, to
11,165.27 after falling nearly 350 points seen in the early going.
Broader stock
indicators also fell. The
Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 31.24, or 2.50 percent, to
1,220.46, and the Nasdaq
composite index fell 38.08, or 1.68 percent, to 2,223.19.
A sharp drop in oil
below $100 also weighed on energy names, including several Dow components. Exxon Mobil Corp.
fell 67 cents to $76.83, while Chevron Corp. fell $1.98, or 2.4 percent,
to $82.26. But consumer names like Procter & Gamble Co. rose 16 cents to
$73.31 and McDonald's Corp.
added 55 cents to $64.61.
Light, sweet crude
dropped $4.15 to $97.03 on the New York Mercantile Exchange after damage
to Gulf of Mexico oil infrastructure from Hurricane Ike was less than investors
feared. Worries about a slower economy have also weighed on oil prices in
recent weeks. Oil is down sharply from its mid-July highs when it hit a record
over $147 a barrel.
Despite the pullback
in oil, prices at the gas pump rose above $5 per gallon in some parts of the
country Sunday after Ike left some the nation's refining capacity inoperable.
Investors will be
watching to see whether the Dow moves below the 11,000 mark, a level it hasn't
traded and closed under since mid-July. The S&P 500 last tested the 1,200 level in
mid-July.
Bond prices surged as
investors fled to the security of government debt. The yield on the benchmark
10-year Treasury note, which moves opposite its price, plunged to 3.51 percent
from 3.72 percent late Friday. The dollar was lower against other major
currencies, while gold prices rose.
Other financial stocks
fell as investors worried about the strength of banks' balance sheets. Washington Mutual Inc.
fell 58 cents, or 21 percent, to $2.15, while Wachovia Corp. fell $3.15, or 22 percent,
to $11.12.
Investors did have
some more solid footing than they might have predicted at the end of last week,
when Lehman's troubles and those of AIG weighed on the markets. A global
consortium of banks, working alongside government officials in New York, announced
a $70 billion pool of funds to lend to troubled financial companies.
And the deal for Merrill Lynch pays a
70 percent premium to the brokerage's closing price Friday. The stock has been
squeezed in recent weeks, leading many Wall Street veterans to point to the
company as the next behind Lehman as likely to run into trouble with bearish
investors and get hit by intensified selling. The deal to pair the company with
Bank of America,
a huge bank with a big asset base, removes some of the worries about Merrill
would be the next to fall.
Merrill rose $3.53, or
21 percent, to $20.58, while Bank of America fell $5.48, or 16 percent, to
$28.26.
Although Monday's
selling wasn't as steep as expected, many market observers have said for months
that a cathartic sell-off is necessary for Wall Street to purge its worries over bad
debt and the tight credit conditions that have hobbled the economy. They reason
that a scare and subsequent sell-off in the markets could establish conditions
for a market bottom to form.
"This is sort of
groundbreaking type stuff," said Scott Fullman, director of derivatives
investment strategy for WJB Capital Group in New York.
Fullman, who has
worked on Wall Street for 29 years, noted that the Dow contains companies, such
as retailers like Wal-Mart
Stores Inc. that could help cushion some of the selling in the
financial sector. Wal-Mart
fell 13 cents to $62.28, while Coca-Cola Co. rose 56 cents to $55.06.
"While they might
get hit hard they won't get hit as hard," he said. But even good news like
a drop in oil and some resolution to fears about Merrill couldn't prevent
widespread selling. Markets in Tokyo and several other Asian money centers were
closed for holidays. Britain's FTSE 100 fell 3.29 percent, Germany's DAX index
lost 2.74 percent, and France's
CAC-40 fell 3.78 percent. The European Central Bank, the Bank of England, and
the Swiss central bank stepped in an attempt to calm markets by making more
short-term credit available to banks.
The reduced headcount
of Wall Street firms Monday left Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Morgan Stanley as
the remaining big, independent firms. The two are slated to report quarterly
results Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively.
The shake-up comes
only a week after the government bailed out mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
and ahead of sizable economic developments this week. The Fed is expected to
make a decision on interest rates on Tuesday.
Declining issues
outnumbered advancers by about 9 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came
to 604.5 million shares.
The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies fell 14.37, or 2.00 percent, to 705.89.
