Good news lifts market
Provided by MSN Money

Tough to tell when the good news will outweigh the bad this earnings season, but that's exactly what it happening this morning.
<P<
Amid a stream of earnings reports good and bad, the Dow is holding on to gains of about 0.5% and the Nasdaq is up about 1.5%.
<P<
Investors lifted stocks early after DaimlerChrysler, Blockbuster, Pharmacia and AT&T Wireless all topped profit expectations -- or at least reported smaller-than-expected losses.
<P<
That seemed to impress investors more than disappointments from Exxon Mobil and Lucent Technologies.
