Stocks Finish in Bear-Market Territory
By Cindy Perman CNBC.com | 09 Jul 2008 | 04:19 PM ET
Stocks snapped a two-day rally with a late selloff that left all three major indexes in bear-market territory.
Financials fell sharply amid worries about more shoes to drop and techs took a hit after Cisco's chief raised concerns about business spending.
