The price of the 30-year bond ended just down 2/32 at 104.

The price, above $25 a barrel in early 1997, ended the year at $17.64.

Prices would also not end in 9 or 7, instead using whole figures when pricing items.

All prices end in 80, a spokesman said, to give back "just that little bit more to the customer."

The price of 3Com ended that day at $81.8125.

That was the peak, and prices ended last year at $300 a ton.

The executive said that price, and perhaps the growing possibility of a deal with Paramount, ended the talks.

The price of the 30-year bond ended 4/32 higher.

Prices in both markets ended virtually unchanged from Friday's levels.

Since then, the price has fluctuated modestly and ended at $20.10 in 2010.
