Market Commentary for November 09, 2007
As we tally the results for the markets as we wrap up the week, the markets aren’t looking to rosy. This past week, the DOW shed over 550 points, with today’s negative trading activity adding to the already negative tone to the market disposition. Throughout today’s trading activity, the Bears roared loudly as the markets tumbled again, following the selloff experienced over the past few market sessions. Oil and concerns over the condition of financial stocks had the markets in a tailspin today as investors bite their nails, waiting for the closing bell to ring as they look wearily at their faltering portfolios.
