It's a little surprising the financial services are down. Although, they would be mixed on (Greenspan's) message, I would expect them to be a little more a positive. |

I think it's just carry over from yesterday. People are still very nervous about what's happening in the technology sector with earnings warnings. There's clearly some buyers stepping in today. |
I think people decided this morning's sell-off was probably a mistake. |
