After treading in positive turf for part of the session, the Nasdaq Composite Index (RIXF) lapsed into the red, ending down 95.21 points at 1,645.12. Volume on the New York Stock Exchange topped 2 billion, and declining stocks outran those advancing 10 to 1. On the Nasdaq, nearly 1.4 billion shares traded, with decliners surpassing advancers nearly 5 to 1. In commodities trade, gold fell, with the contract for December delivery dropping $20 to end at $886.50 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange. . Oil futures for November delivery fell $2.36 to $86.59 a barrel, its lowest closing level so far this year. Rate cuts The stock market's continued decline comes one day after the U.S. Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of England and other central banks made coordinated rate cuts. The moves seemed to make little impact on Wednesday with the Dow industrials dropping 189 points, the Nasdaq Composite falling 14 points and the S&P 500 shedding 11 points. "Despite the poor close, I do think we are finally at the point where the short-term downside risk is minimal. While the upside might take time to develop, recession, earnings and a credit crisis are discounted," said Marc Pado, U.S. market strategist at Miller Tabak. "The market could still go down another 10% or so from here just purely on momentum," according to Paul Nolte, director of investments at Hinsdale Associates. Hear Nolte. According to a report, the Treasury Department is considering a plan to take ownership stakes in many U.S. banks, both healthy and troubled, the New York Times reported, citing unnamed government officials. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said in a speech Wednesday that he has the authority to do so under the $700 billion bailout plan. Britain on Wednesday announced a similar plan, though no U.K. bank as yet has taken government cash. "If Paulson heeds the advice of [U.K. Prime Minister Gordon] Brown and [ Chancellor Alistair] Darling, the chances that the U.S. economy will be steered away from a deep recession extending through 2009 will be greatly improved," said economists at RDQ Economics. In a related note, the Fed late Wednesday said it's going to lend $37.8 billion in additional cash to American International Group Inc. (AIG) for domestic life insurance subsidiaries in return for investment grade fixed-income securities. Stock futures had held an early advance after the Labor Department reported a decline in weekly jobless claims, which fell by 20,000 to 478,000 last week. . Overseas, Iceland nationalized its largest bank, Kaupthing, as a financial crisis deepened, meaning all three of its key banks are now under government control. In Russia, equities rebounded after tumbling earlier in the week, with oil and gas shares leading the rally and forcing Moscow's stock exchanges to suspend trading once again. A stock rally in London proved short lived, with the FTSE 100 index falling 1.2%. . In Asia, markets ended mixed after a volatile session.
