.: Corvallis Gazette-Times :. AP World News
From: www.gazettetimes.com
"But despite this belated realization that some stocks actually fall, analysts are not sharing the un-love evenly.
Among the nation's 15 biggest brokerages, the shares of companies who also happen to be investment banking clients account for no more than one out of 10 sell ratings issued by any one of the brokerages, estimated Mitch Zacks, vice president at Zacks. At some of these big investment firms, it's one in 25.
By contrast, about two-thirds of a big investment firm's banking clients are buy-rated, while the rest are deemed "hold" or "neutral."
Google Stock Auction Approach May Backfire

With the Federal Reserve contemplating when, and how much, to raise interest rates, inflation is an increasingly worrisome factor for stock investors. But analysts say a modest rise in inflation is a necessary part of the economic recovery, and not necessarily something to fear.
"A couple percentage points of inflation is not that big a deal."
