Market Recap - Apple Falls under $550, Natural Gas Shines

Another heavy volume distribution day, this time thanks to the Fed minutes. From IBD, "The Fed minutes indicated little change in policymakers' assessments of the U.S. economic outlook, but also contained cautionary language about the so-called 'fiscal cliff' facing the U.S. at year's end."

StockCharts.com today noted that defensive sectors are holding up best. Also, Bespoke shared a great overview of all commodities, citing how every one is oversold but natural gas, which is featured here tonight.

Stay frosty out there and I will see you back here tomorrow!

    It's interesting that the otherwise excellent Stockcharts.com site article claiming 'all' sectors were down utterly ignored the red-hot bond sector. Oh well..it isn't Bondcharts.com... keep up the great work here...

    ...facebook(fb) current market value equal to 25 times annual sales, if Apple (AAPL) were valued the same it would be worth $3 trillion, instead of its $510 billion valuation so bfore you buy FB think twice.
