assess economy fact good market news reacting sector technology trying
It was a little choppy. It's the market trying to assess the good news we're getting out of the technology sector and, at the same time, reacting to the fact the economy is slowing.

This would be the wrong stage to be suddenly raising rates a lot because the reaction to the earlier rate increases just hasn't occurred yet.
bad canadian clear clearly depending good looking market markets news numbers react strongly swinging
I think the market will react strongly to what the numbers are. Clearly the U.S. market and the Canadian markets are looking for direction. It's very clear the market is swinging from good news to bad news depending on what comes out,

I think in Toronto we're seeing reaction to the Lucent pre-announcement with Nortel, which is down,
answer cautious people reaction sentiment shock worried worse
I think there was a shock reaction (at first) and then people said 'Is this very worse than we thought it was going to be?' And the answer was no. Yes, it was a down day but it wasn't very much of a down day, ... I think the sentiment is cautious but not as worried as would be expected.

basically companies higher ignored interest small technology warning
The fast-growing small technology companies basically ignored the Fed's warning of higher interest rates.

I hadn't expected BP Amoco to be really in the market for acquisitions this quickly, ... What it tells me is that they have done a faster job of consolidation of Amoco's assets and they feel very comfortable going forward.
continued fact growing hurt interest rapidly rates stocks strongly surprised tear technology today
I'm surprised that technology has continued to be on a tear so strongly today because it's the rapidly growing stocks that will in fact be hurt if interest rates are increased.
case decided investment scale strategic
It was probably a case of scale up or sell, and (Bank of Montreal) decided it did not want to make the strategic investment needed.
