MSI: Dell Forces Mormon Stock Index Down
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- Worries over Dell Computer's future earnings led to a
14% drop in its stock price, which pushed the Mormon Stock Index down 4%
last week. The drop left the index at 116.57, down 5.16 for the week.
In addition to Dell's drop, a 34% decline in Corvis Corp., caused by weaker
than hoped for earnings for the recently-ended quarter, contributed to the
index's fall. Meanwhile, EarthShell rose 15% as good news about its products
continued. Last week the company announced that it will create
environmentally-friendly hot cups, entering a billion-dollar market.
