indices continue into negative territory. the financial sector (-1.8%), is fueling the selling activity after it was unable to make a recovery following its 4.6% decline yesterday and the solid employment data. 7 out 10 of the ten economic sectors are in the red. only the tech (+0.3%), utilities (+0.3%) and energy (+0.3%) sectors are showing gains....Dow -56.50, Naz -3.94 rtq.

stock market continues into negative territory with the lame excuse of renewed credit concerns.......how this continues to overshadow a solid employment report is beyond me!!!!.

trading has been choppy....Dow though recouping somewhat here since last update...Dow -34.24 Points, Naz +5.74 rtq.....13,532.51 2,800.98 rtq.

Markets are currently printing green now with Naz holding steady on its gains with over 13 Points, while Dow is flatlined for the time being.....again, no justification for yesterday's dump other than a total manipulation....Dow +0.08, Naz +15.12 rtq.
