<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I primarily use Pinnacle for their Futures data
in various software applications. However, I have one program that I would
like to be able to read in text (.txt) files from stock data I download from the
Yahoo! stock site. I know I am missing something glaringly simple when I
attempt to prepare the Yahoo data into a text file capable of being read by my
software (Murrey Math). My attempt to convert to text data was to load the
Yahoo data into Excel and save as Text format (I tried both comma and tab
delimited, neither of which was recognized as valid text files by my
program). Any suggestions? Thanks, Brian</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>

U.S. Retail Sales Report May Provide Clue to Whether
Fed Will Raise Rates
By Vincent Del Giudice and Terry Barrett
Attention Turns to Retail Sales Report: U.S. Economy
Preview
Washington, Oct. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Retail sales figures for
September will be the focus this week as investors
assess whether
the numbers will encourage the Federal Reserve to raise
interest
rates for a third time since June, analysts said.
Sales probably increased 0.3 percent in September after
rising 1.2 percent during August, analysts said.
Outside of food
and energy, retail sales probably increased 0.4 last
month after
increasing 0.7 percent the previous month, analysts
said. The
Commerce Department will release the report Thursday.
``The focus of attention will be on the consumer,'' said
Gary Thayer, chief economist at A.G. Edwards & Co. in
St. Louis.
``Retail sales should be strong because of strong car
sales, but
the Fed may be looking more at retail sales excluding
autos to
see if there is any weakness there.''
Consumer spending accounts for two-thirds of the nation's
total output of goods and services. Tuesday, the Fed's
policy
panel, the Federal Open Market Committee, announced it
is leaning
toward raising the overnight bank lending rate again to
guard
against inflation. The FOMC orchestrated quarter-point
increases
in the overnight rate in June and August, bringing the
rate to
5.25 percent.
Industry figures show that retail same-store sales rose 6.7
percent in September as shoppers scooped up new fall
fashions and
back-to-school supplies. The auto industry reported its
best
sales month since 1986 in August, and some of that strength
carried into September.
Looking ahead, holiday sales at U.S. retailers are expected
to rise about 4.5 percent this year, according to a
Bank of Tokyo-
Mitsubishi forecast. The forecast, which includes sales
during
November and December, is slightly less than last
year's 5.1
percent increase and matches the gain in 1997. Holiday
sales
account for about 24 percent of annual sales.
Inflation Statistics
Higher oil and tobacco prices will probably dominate the
government's latest inflation statistics, to be
released Friday.
The producer price index probably rose 0.5 percent in
September,
the same as a month earlier, analysts said. Outside of
food and
energy, the PPI probably rose 0.4 percent after falling 0.1
percent a month earlier.
Outside of oil and tobacco, though, ``the underlying trend
in wholesale prices is expected to remain subdued,''
according to
a forecast by Standard & Poor's MMS in Belmont,
California.
Oil prices more than doubled this year -- to $25 a
barrel in
September -- as U.S. inventories dropped to their
lowest level
since January 1998 amid a global production cut. In the
past
week, oil prices retreated to about $20 a barrel.
Philip Morris Cos., the world's largest tobacco company,
raised U.S. cigarette prices to distributors by 18
cents a pack,
or 11 percent. No. 2 cigarette maker R.J. Reynolds Tobacco
Holdings Inc. said it raised prices by the same amount.
Also this week:
-- The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta is expected to
report
that its manufacturing index increased in September,
rising to
9.5 for the month from 8.4 during August. That report is
scheduled for release Wednesday.
-- The Labor Department is likely to report Thursday that
first-time claims for state unemployment benefits
declined by
10,000 to a seasonally adjusted 302,000 in the week
ended Oct. 9
after rising by 10,000 the previous week.
-- The Commerce Department will issue figures on business
inventories Friday that probably will show they
increased 0.3
percent in August after rising the same amount during July.
-- The Federal Reserve will issue a report Friday that
probably will show that output at U.S. factories,
mines, and
utilities increased 0.1 percent in September after
rising 0.3
percent during August, analysts said. The plant-use
rate probably
declined to 80.6 percent in September from 80.0 percent in
August, analysts said.
-- The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index,
also on the agenda for Friday, probably declined to
106.4 in
October from 107.2 during September, analysts said.
