TradingMarkets Mid-Day Movers


Markets trading down
fractionally; investors are nervous before this afternoon’s Fed announcement.

Mixed earnings from Altria and Merck lead to investor
skepticism and slight losses before Alan Greenspan’s last Fed meeting.

Gold climbed to a new 25-year high as increasing
tension in the Middle East continues to fuel demand for save-haven futures.
