Dow Closes Up 401 Point at 8,979

It is clear that investors are reacting in the extreme to negative economic news, including disappointing numbers Thursday on industrial production. But traders are also reacting to the market's declines, and were piling in to buy late in the session.

Analysts expect this extraordinary volatility to continue, and warned that just as Monday's huge 936-point surge in the Dow was overdone, there was little reason to trust that Thursday's gains would hold.

The Dow has ended the day up about 401 points at the 8,979 level, having fallen 733 on Wednesday.
