Ouch! That one had to leave a bruise. All of a sudden, two months worth of trendless, sideway-moving markets showed its hand, and it was a definite thumbs down. At the lows, the Dow Average was off 400 points, the first time it moved more than 1% since early July. The Volatility Index (VIX) exploded

One has to be truly impressed with the selloff in biotech and health care stocks over the past year. Since May, there were signs that life was returning to this beleaguered sector. Then Mylan decided to raise the prices of it's EpiPen by 400% and it was back to the penalty box. Let?s gouge poor
