Wall Street mixed on data, China

AAP, with a staff reporter

United States stocks are mixed but mostly higher after several leading companies bested earnings estimates and as investors welcomed news that China may enact new economic stimulus policies.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 42.69 points, or 0.27 per cent, to 15,588.24 points.

The broad-based S&P 500 was flat, up 0.67 points, or 0.04 per cent, to 1,696.20 points.

The tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index slipped 3.78 points, or 0.11 per cent, to 3,596.60 points.

Several leading companies, including Dow components DuPont, United Technologies and Travellers, reported profits that exceeded analyst expectations, even if revenues in some cases lagged forecasts.

Global markets were also cheered after Chinese state media quoted Chinese Premier Li Keqiang as saying economic growth must stay above the "bottom line" of seven per cent. Analysts saw the remarks as implying more economic stimulus was forthcoming.

Concerns about a Chinese economic slowdown have crimped investor sentiment worldwide. Several leading European and Asian stock indices rose following Li's remarks.

LGBT group OneTable finds acceptance at evangelical college in Pasadena, Calif.

BY SARAH PARVINI, ASSOCIATED PRESS PASADENA, Calif. -- Nick Palacios struggled to get his conservative Pentecostal parents to accept him as a gay evangelical Christian for nearly a decade before his family found a common ground through faith. Now, as an openly gay seminarian, the 29-year-old hopes to carve out a similar acceptance for other gays in the broader evangelical community through his role as president of the nation's first LGBT student club sanctioned by a major evangelical seminary. The group, called OneTable, formed last fall at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, one of the world's largest multi-denominational seminaries, and has attracted about three dozen students. "It quickly became apparent to me that I was going to be OK and that I wasn't going to have to forsake my faith for my sexuality," Palacios said of his struggle for acceptance. "I really hope that people will see Fuller and OneTable as a model of what the body of the church is supposed to do in this situation." Fuller's stance has created ripples in the larger world of Christian colleges and seminaries, where a growing number of gay evangelical students are asserting their dual identities with underground clubs and nascent political activism. Last year, for example, a group called the Biola Queer Underground was quashed by Biola University, a small, conservative Christian school in nearby Orange County. This fall, the LGBT group plans on staging ral ...
