英语文摘：Wall Street bounces from earlier deep losses amid global sell-off

NEW YORK, Oct. 6 (Xinhua) -- Wall Street rebounded Monday afternoon from early deep losses as investors hunted for bargain after the major indexes plunging more than 7 percent.

    However, the Dow Jones industrial average was down more than 300 points to settle below 10,000 points, the first time since October 2004.

    Wall Street joined a global sell-off as investors realized that the U.S. government's 700-billion-U.S. dollar rescue plan won't work quickly to unfreeze the credit markets.

    The emergency rescue of two big European banks and a move by several European governments to guarantee bank deposits intensified fears that the credit crisis can not be contained.

Traders work at the New York Stock Exchange in New York, the United States, Oct. 6, 2008. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 369.88 points and ended at 9,955.50 points Monday, below 10,000 points for the first time since October 2004.

    The Dow Jones industrial average fell 369.88 points, or 3.58 percent, to 9,955.50. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index skidded 42.34 points, or 3.85 percent, to 1,056.89, while the Nasdaq Composite Index dropped 84.43 points, or 4.34 percent, to 1,862.96.
