Markets continued their strong performance this week in the absence of any major market driving earnings or economic reports, as the broad based buying that characterized the previous week continued and led to gains in all of the major indices. All told, the Dow added 2.5% on the week, gaining 247 points to close at 10,270, up 17.0% on the year. The Nasdaq posted a 2.6% gain on the week, closing at 2,167 to extend its yearly gains to 37.5%, while the S&P 500 and Russell 2000 gained 2.3% and 1.0% respectively, bringing their yearly gains to 21.1% and 17.4%.

Equity markets carried the momentum from the previous week’s session, as the thin economic calendar and lack of significant earnings reports provided little incentive for investors to slow their buying activities.

AutoNation (AN) has sketched its industry outlook, revealing a gloomy 2010 preceding an improvement in the years following. The company stated that it anticipates a marginal rise in industry sales to 11 million cars and trucks from the current-year rate of 10 million vehicles. This was in stark contrast to an annual rate of more than 16 million vehicles ticked earlier this decade. AutoNation blamed tight credit for pulling down sales this year. However, sales will hit bottom in 2009. Many banks have kept their credit standards extremely high for car loans, which is depressing the industry sales despite continuous efforts taken by the government to ease credit standards. Further, job loss and stability in housing prices are also an issue. Thus, the Richmond, Virginia-based automotive retailer -- the largest in the U.S. -- expects the industry to recoup sales gradually by 2011 and beyond....

Allegheny Energy (AYE) has beaten the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate of 55 cents by four cents to clock earnings per share of 59 cents in the third quarter of fiscal 2009. Allegheny Energy also crossed the year-ago EPS by five cents due to improved result from its Delivery & Services business. Earnings rose to $31.5 million from $4.3 million in the year-ago quarter. The improvement was due to increased cost recovery in Virginia , the elimination of an inter-company transfer payment and higher revenues from transmission expansion. These benefits were partially offset by lower retail electricity sales and higher income taxes, primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income. However this was partially offset by lower earnings at the Generation and Marketing business. Here, earnings fell to $45.5 million from $84.7 million in the year-ago quarter due to a tepid economy and low power prices. Earnings ...
