Stocks end little changed on worries about economy

NEW YORK (AP) - February 18, 2009 Wall Street is ending essentially flat Wednesday after a steep sell-off a day earlier on worries about the global economy. Several modest rallies unraveled during the day as market indicators hovered around the lows they marked in November.

The Standard & Poor's 500 index is down less than a point at 788. The Nasdaq composite index fell 3 to 1,468.

Declining stocks outnumbered advancers by about 5 to 2 on the New York Stock Exchange. Volume came to a light 1.43 billion shares.
