I was expecting US stock turned much lower when Wall-Street opened today after two-day halt due to Sandy. But it was not that bad and both indexes of DJIA and S&P 500 just slipped a little bit.  I know it should be  a boost for construction and hardware companies, but a big bumpy for insurance companies and banks. So what was your expections for the US stock market due to the storm?

It was nothing compared to the big loss last week.

The determinant factor influencing stock indexes may be investors' confidence. Although Sandy caused severe damage to infrastructure and residential houses, it doesn't harm manufactures too much. Insurance companies may suffer a lot, but I don't think banks will be influenced too much.

Partially agreed. you said that investor's confidence determine the stock indexes, and I have the same idea. But in America, individual investors take a great part in the stock market i guess. So, the trepidation among the individual investors may turn the stocks lower. Besides, some other social problems like unemployment may increase the anxiety, leading to much greater influence.

I agree with what you said. However, the truth now is that the unemployment rate dropped below 8% recently, which means a better perspective for investors, even though it may be just a result of statistical game. Compared with better performance of American economy, Sandy's influence may not play a very important role in the stock market. That's why some indexes only drop a little, and may re-rise soon.

the labor market has been recovering in New York, in short time, due to Sandy. lots of public facilities was destroyed. the rebuliding of those facilities needs a large number of labors, which will promote the employment.
