NEW YORK — The stock market is holding up, just not pressing ahead as the economic signs look a little less promising.

Stocks had their fourth straight day of minimal moves yesterday as commodity prices slid and orders for big-ticket manufactured goods fell, injecting more uncertainty into the market.

Investors are uneasy but aren't giving up on stocks. The Dow Jones industrials lost only 26 points yesterday and major indexes are still up about 11 percent since mid-July. Analysts say the market's buoyancy after such a big gain is a welcome sign of stability, but also that more good news is needed for stocks to resume their climb.
