US stocks rally, Europe mixed as Asian markets drop

Sunday, 20 September 2009


NEW YORK, Sept 19, (Agencies): Stocks edged higher Friday as investors looked to extend a strong run that has left major indexes up 2 per cent for the week.
The market rose the first three days of the week on good signs about the economy, but slipped Thursday as investors worried that the rally was overdone.
Stocks have risen eight of the past 10 days and indexes like the Dow Jones industrial average touched new highs for the year Wednesday.
