    Any time there is a cyber security breach for a company there is an average of a 10% drop in their share price. Not long after this news they tend to bounce back up to their original price or higher. Bought some Target today. We'll see how that goes.

    I'd be careful with this one. Its due for a big bear raid.

    The MJ sector has been the wild west lately.

    For a rookie to the stock market game, any recommendations on sites or books to read up on before investing?

    I'm putting my bear cap on. It's dangerous out there right now fellas be careful with any long positions. A target of Dow 15,000 is entirely possible if we don't turn this around soon.

    Yeah I cashed out of the kids college funds just after their release (can't afford the risk) as my stocks have done very well - expecting a profit taking pullback. I will see what happens over the next couple of weeks and reload.

    My 401k stocks though (long term and I'm still happy with my choices)...letting them ride...with some cash on the side ready to buy some dips.
