That was very bearish for stocks today. Bears still have the solid near-term technical advantage in the stock indexes and gained more power today. Look for any rallies in the stock indexes to be selling opportunities in the near term.*********************************************************************Have you heard of ValueForum?---------------------------------------------------------------------ValueForum is the premier online investment discussion and collaborationcommunity for serious value and income investors.
