continental, and union pacific. how about mcdonald's? they weren't selling this one, they were buying it, because sa same-store sales were better than expected. 3.4% in july. mcdonald's closing up 1.75%. much of it had to do with research in motion. downgraded today, mostly a valuation fall, but certainly cut into big cap technology stocks. research in motion down just about 6%, apple and microsoft falling. finally the other story of the dye with price line, the ceo was on the call this morning for good reason because they had a better than expected earnings report. >> i interviewed him on "the call." >>. >> what's most interesting i thought today was the surprising pick up in summer leisure travel. 52-westbound high today for the stock. the stock up 100% year-to-date. and it was up a double digit percentage point as we look at the screen here, 150 bucks, up another 14.. >> you know, i forgot to ask if this improvement in summer leisure travel was driven by all those jets that house speaker nancy pelosi is ordering up. i forgot to ask. >
