OK, you can come out now

The stock market had a good day - finally. The Dow was up 157 points, or 1.3 percent, and most local stocks were on the plus side too. Just before the closing bell, Countrywide Financial was up 4.72 percent, Disney up 2.14 percent, KB Home up 2.18 percent and California Pizza Kitchen up 3.36 percent. Even Alan Greenspan couldn't upset things by saying - again - that there's a possibility of a recession towards the end of the year (that guy should really keep his mouth shut). A turnaround had been long overdue, but what happens now? Expect some skepticism about whether this is the start of something big. AP
