Pull Back Continues Through Mixed News

Ouch, I think is one of the best ways to think about the last few days of trading. Since Friday, the S&P 500 (.INX) has lost almost 4%. Concerns over real recovery prospects and actual economic growth have started catching up with the recent rally.

We talked about a blow off top last week, and how some pullback was inevitable from the rally. But there have been a lot of other news items coming into play recently. Not all good or bad.

Companies have still been aggressively cutting jobs, which will affect consumer confidence, and explains the increase in productivity. Now productivity gains are a good thing, and even though net output is down, any sustained increase in productivity is a huge economic advantage.

While the financials have been dropping, one bank with good news has barely risen…

Wells Fargo Financial (NYSE: WFC) announced it would be cutting its government indebtedness – like many other bailout recipients – but more importantly, it stated that it would not dilute shareholder equity to do so. Score another win for Warren Buffett’s influence.

Oh, and anyone who agreed that American International Group (NYSE: AIG) had moved too far too fast and got out on Friday morning like we mentioned is looking back at that 35% decrease with some sense of satisfaction. We are.

Symbols mentioned in this article: .INX, WFC and AIG.

The Company Set to Dominate a $60 Billion-a-Year Market

$60 billion is spent on cancer treatment in the U.S. - each year. And one company is poised to receive the lion's share of it.

The medical director at the Alta Bates Comprehensive Cancer Center says, "...possibly a third of our cancer patient population will soon be undergoing this [company's] treatment."

Another doctor at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center says he intends to treat over 1,000 patients a year with this technology.

Here's how you can claim your stake in the company before this cash infusion sends shares soaring.
