Upside’s Commentary

The stock market fell today, reversing gains earlier in the session as a shooting at the Canadian parliament rattled investors and Biogen and Boeing traded lower following results. The Dow was down 153, or 0.9%, to 16,461. The Nasdaq was down 37, or 0.8%, to 4,383, while the S&P 500 lost 14, or 0.7%, to 1,927. Declining issues outnumbered advancers by a more than 2-to-1 ratio on the NYSE, where volume was heavy.

The market worried that today’s shooting at the Canadian parliament was an act of terrorism. So far it looks that way, as ISIS has already declared the dead guy a martyr.  The Ottawa, Canada shooting of a Canadian solider and the shots fired in the Canadian Parliament left two dead, and it rattled the stock market enough to send it lower, where it finished with all three of the major indices at their lows of the day.
