Market Comments: The market has been under pressure all day. Energy stocks are leading the decline, followed by housing stocks and brokers. Oil is down below $57, which is pressuring oil & gas stocks. Other interest-rate sensitive financials are bucking the weakness as bond yeilds have falled below 4.40%.

The market was way overbought, so some consolidation is not suprising. I have raised a little cash, and will look for opportunities to add on pullbacks.
