Filed under: Pfizer (PFE), Coca-Cola (KO), Sprint Nextel Corp (S)Today was one of those days that felt as though it was another mini-disaster. Another 600,000 weekly jobless claims were coming to roost. A late day note that the Obama administration was ready to subsidize troubled houses with partial buy-downs of loans to avoid repossession helped to bring on a recovery. While this is far from set in stone and far from being "a done deal" it created a monster to save to otherwise nasty trading day. If you were here all but the last hour it would have been just another miserable day. Here are today's unofficial closing bell levels:DJIA: 7932.76, -6.77, -0.09%S&P500: 835.19, +11.45, +0.17%NASDAQ: 1541.71, +11.21, +0.73%Top Analyst UpgradesTop Analyst DowngradesJA Solar Holdi
