    Individual sector indices were moving downward nearly across the board, with the only gains in Insurance, up 1.61 percent; Public Utilities, up 0.28 percent; and Financial Services, up 0.23 percent.

    The biggest losses were in Personal Products, down 3.10 percent; and Mass Media, down 2.09 percent.

    The FTSE/ASE 20 index for blue chip and heavily traded stocks was down 1.00 percent, the FTSE/ASE MID 40 index was down 1.00 percent, and the FTSE/ASE-80 small cap index was down 1.27 percent.

    Of the stocks traded, 12 were up, 67 were down, and 9 were unchanged.
