    tsptalk's Market Talk

    Stocks are stalling but not before filling in Friday's open gaps in the indices. Both the C and S funds have hit some tough resistance so the easy money snap back rally that traders bought, now gets more difficult. If the bears are serious, this is where they make their stand. If the bulls...
