The markets posting their biggest selloff since november 7th. The major indices all down more than a percent this week. Its a big day for ipos led by hilton and aeromark. We have the ceos after trading begins. Facebook, shares up on news the ipo will join the s p 500. Lululemon lower on weaker guidance. The day after the dow closed down, the worst day since september. Retail sales showed an uptick in november. Next week all eyes will be on the fed meeting as investors watch for the potential taper from the federal reserve. Maybe decks are cleared for a taper or at least a serious discussion for one, why not take your gains for the year. Is thats whats happening . We had the largest order in balance weve had ever. If you take a look to sell, if you look at when the market broke down, its look, i can shoe horn anything. I can say thats because of taper, i can say thats because of the budget deal. How about this because of the possibility that there are lots of funds that are locking in.
