Daily Small Cap Market News and Stock Highlights from SmallCapVoice.com

Investors are showing little reaction to word that 10 of nation's largest banks can repay $68 billion in bailout money.

Stocks are moderately higher but traders are reacting coolly to the Treasury Department's announcement that the banks, which were not named, will be allowed to repay the money they received from the $700 billion emergency rescue fund created by Congress at the height of the financial crisis in October.

Traders have been expecting that banks would be allowed to repay the money as they seek to escape restrictions on executive compensation and other areas.

The Dow Jones industrial average is up 11 at 8,776. The Standard & Poor's 500 index is up 3 at 942, while the Nasdaq composite index is up 12 at 1,854.
