The Institute for Supply Management on said its index of nonmanufacturing activity declined to 54.2 in October from 55.1 in September. Economists   expected a decline to 54.5 and above 50 is expansion. New-orders and business activity both fell, but employment rose.
Crude-oil futures wavered between small gains and losses as   traders assess energy demand after Hurricane Sandy and wait for the U.S. election and a meeting of China’s leadership. December crude is up 0.1%, to   $84.91 a barrel on the New York Merc. Both the U.S. election tomorrow and the 18th Communist Party congress in China on Thursday should give a boost to commodities markets.
Maybe smaller is better.  Apple said it has sold three million iPads in three days since the launch of its new iPad mini and fourth generation iPad–double its previous first-weekend milestone.
