(May 19)AP Money MinuteGas prices are high, food's more expensive and the job market's cold, but the U.S. may still avoid a recession.That's the message from the New York-based Conference Board, a private business group whose index of leading economic indicators defied expectations and inched higher in April.Six of ten leading indicators rose for the month, including stock prices, interest rate spreads and housing permits. Those increases more than offset the sharp declines in average weekly hours worked and consumer spending.------------------------------T he Wall Street Journal is reporting Federal regulators are investigating a milk price-manipulation scheme. The investigation is focusing on the Kansas City-based dairy cooperative, which controls about a third of the nation's milk supply. Separately, the Justice Department is preparing to investigate a recently disclosed $1 million transfer to a former director of the Dairy Farmers of America.----------------------------Chry sler is extending its offer to subsidize customers' gasoline prices for three years. The deal caps gas at $2.99 per gallon with Chrysler paying the rest. People who buy or lease eligible vehicles can pick between the gas subsidy, cash rebates or zero percent financing. On some vehicles, customers can get rebates and the gas subsidy. It was to expire June 2, but now will go through July 7.I'm Mark Hamrick with AP Money Minute. ___ ___, The Associated Press.

AP's Mark Hamrick reports on that and the rest of Monday's top business headlines. (June 23)AP Money MinuteAs bad as the economy may be, it isn't hurting Amercan's sweet tooth. Analysts at The Nielsen Co. are calling the candy business "recession-proof." They note that consumers are cutting back on longer-distance shopping trips to save gas. As a result, they're spending more at drug and convenience stores with big, easy-access candy sections. Then there's the "feel good" factor. Neilsen's vice president says a dollar candy bar is a treat when spending nearly $100 for a tank of gas.----------------And in case you've lost track, those numbers at the pump are about 10 cents higher than two weeks ago. According to the Lundberg Survey, the average price of self-serve regular was $4.10 a gallon on Friday. Mid-grade was $4.22 and premium went for $4.33. The cheapest gas - $3.76 a gallon - was in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Los Angeles and Fresno, California tied for the nation's highest at $4.59 a gallon for regular.-----------------Sports fans will be able to catch up on the Beijing Olympics during their commute this summer. That's the idea behind the NBC Olympics on the Go service. Fans can select which sports they're interested in while connected to the Web, and the program automatically downloads the coverage once it's available. While users can watch the events without being online, they must have Microsoft Windows Vista in order to use the service. I'm Mark Hamrick with AP Money Minute
