    these 2 companies are getting wacked hard...MO is down 8$ and its about to split up...under 72 looks great...i am too scared to go long to buy any big positions this week ...maybe ill buy 100-200 mo just to test the waters...id rather be an observer today...
     
  2. Yeah, 2 big time heavy weights getting wacked. Not a good sign. Defensive stocks...lol

    I agree, they and JNJ may be good pick ups after a bit more blood.

    If funds thought that this is a major buying op it would make sense. Sell the defensive stuff and rotate in to better opportunities. Could be where the money buying the financials is coming from, on the other hand tech is getting killed.
