Q: Is there something going on in the market I haven't caught? Friday's 200 point drop on seemingly no news was strange enough. Now we have another triple digit, across the board loss and the only explanation is perhaps speculation about a report due on Chinese growth. Yet I'm seeing some of my lower beta, stable, conservative stocks plunging even more than the high beta momentum stocks. Easyhome down almost 6%, IPL down almost 5%, even Saputo down over 3%, none of which would seem to have anything to do with China. I'm not seeing people moving into anything else (certainly not energy, tech or materials) so what's the money doing?
