Filipino-Chinese students hold a dragon puppet and dance on the trading
floor of the Philippine stock exchange in Manila to welcome the Year of
the Horse on February 12, 2002. Philippine stocks extended gains on
Tuesday, as local investors further took advantage of last week's
correction to accumulate selected large-caps, traders said. The main
index closed up 16.45 points, or 1.2 percent, at 1,382.41 points.
