As Market Plunges, Major Stocks Fall Under $10 (AEO, BCS, C, GLW, DRYS, IPAR, IPCS, LULU)

Burningmoney_3The market message has been the same for the entire last week.  Carnage and mayhem.  But what is interesting is how many household companies and how many widely held stocks have this week or today dipped under the $10.00 stock price.  This is horrible because it screws up options trading and begins to genuinely worry investors who were already worried.  Shares never dip under $10.00 because things are going so well.

American Eagle Outfitters Inc. (NYSE: AEO) broke under $10.00 early Monday and hasn’t been able to look back.   After a same store sales drop of 12% last week, the coolness looks long gone.  Maybe they could do a deal with Gap and really damage themselves.

Barclays plc (NYSE: BCS) hit $9.65 today, which is back to mid-1990’s levels.  The number one position in ETF’s can’t keep the financial giant from ruin.
