James, Blue-chip stocks fell Monday, bowing to profit-taking... Every time I hear this phrase tossed out in order to rationalize a market sell-off, I always think of its opposite, which, though no less silly, sounds a bit odd because we haven't heard it continuously regurgitated by the financial press: "Blue-chip stocks rose Monday, responding to loss-giving..." :o) Come to think of it, what with the beating the shorts have been taking lately, the latter statement actually makes more sense!
