html - forcing hyphenation formatting

I have a site that displays negative numbers. When the resolution and font size are just right, the browser separates the minus sign from the number, that is it the minus sign will display on one line while the number is wrapped to the next line even though there is no space between them. How would I prevent this? (other than asking the user to change thier monitor resolution or font size!)
