  2. Apple's sucker punch

    Stocks could not withstand the sucker punch from Apple yesterday as we saw an across the board sell-off of 2% to 3%. Apple is a component of the Dow (-660), the S&P 500 (-2.48%), and the Nasdaq (-3.04%) so they were hit hard. Apple is not part of the small caps indexes so while the small caps did decline in sympathy with the larger indexes, the Russell 2000 lost "just" 1.3% and our S-fund fell 1.74%. And with the dollar falling sharply, the I-fund held up even better.
