e recent "nonconfirmation" signal from the transportation average. A few days earlier, the folks at research group Bespoke Investment wrote a note to clients pointing out the "negative divergence" themselves. Translation: Watch out. Investors trying to guess where stocks are heading like to follow the transports because if consumers and businesses are buying more, then all those goods have to be trucked, shipped and flown somewhere, and stocks should be rising. Technical analysts like to see them rising together with the Dow industrials, and the two hitting highs together. When one hits a high, and the other lags, the technical crowd sees trouble. That's the gist of the so-called Dow theory, a venerated gauge of when to buy and sell named after Charles Dow, co-founder of The Wall Street Journal. He came up with the first average of 11 railroad and shipping companies, including the once mighty Pacific Mail Steamship Co. You'd think a measure devised when Chester A. Arthur was president and men walked around with mutton-chop sideburns would have lost its appeal by now.

By FRANCES D'EMILIO and TRISHA THOMAS, Associated Press GROSSETO, Italy (AP) The first hearing of the criminal investigation into the Costa Concordia's shipwreck was held in a theater Saturday instead of a courthouse because of high demand, with angry survivors seeking compensation, justice and the truth. The judge at the hearing assigned four experts to analyze the cruise ship's data recorder and ordered them to report their findings in July, confirming predictions by Prosecutor Francesco Verusio that examination of the data, as well as of conversations involving officers on the ship's bridge, could take months. Prosecutors must decide whether to seek a trial against the captain, http://www.cheaptomsoutlet0.com - toms shoes discount , other top officers and officials of Italian cruise company Costa Crociere SpA, which is owned by Miami-based Carnival Corp. Crucial to their decision could be what the experts determine are such details as the Concordia's velocity when it slammed into a reef the night of Jan. 13 off Giglio island, its exact route and what commands were given by whom and when, http://www.yhybmn.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=144271 - http://www.yhybmn.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=144271 . Participants acknowledged that the search for truth and justice will be a long one. "Today is just the beginning," said Francesco Compagna, a lawyer for some passengers and an injured Russian crew member, Irina Nazarova. "It is the first day. We don't expect quick things but we think that the investigation must follow in all the directions," said the lawyer.
