CLOSING BARK

Markets close mixed with the Big caps green and small/mids/NAZ in the pink/red. Value stocks also winners on the day as large cap value was the clear style winner.

Strong sectors included silvers, defense, metals, utilities, real estate, software, drugs and integrated oils while gaming, internets, brokers, exchanges, biotech, tech, homies and semis were all red.

Market internals a bit bullish with 3/2 green on the OEX/SPX and about the reverse on the NDX.

Key stocks mixed with AAPL BAM MSFT RIMM XOM BIIB and PFE all green while BOT NYX CME BSC MS GS C MGM LVS CTSH INFY AMZN YHOO and EBAY all red.

Big winners included DISCA LBTYA MICC MRVL AA ATI CCU EXC TWX GD and UTX.

IBD stocks also mixed with GROW the big loser as it trades down 17%.

And check out the chart on Cramer's favorite growth stock for 2007, NYX, not doing so well- but there is always his favorite spec stock for 2007, LVLT, also not doing so well. Good for blogger amusement if nothing else.
