Market recap: Stocks finished slightly
lower in trading confined to a narrow range, and that's the way things could continue for a while, as "the bears don't feel
comfortable and the bulls don't feel comfortable, and people don't have a reason
to be involved" amid the lingering fiscal cliff fight and macroeconomic
concerns. Gold slumped below $1,700/oz., blamed on technical pressure following
short-selling in Asia.
