The market started to sell-off about 2 hours into the session. After that, price basically went sideways.
When the last hour of the session began, we started diving fast on big volume. It coincided with Bank of America (BAC) breaking the $5-barrier. However, I'm not interested in financial stocks, I would rather buy strength than weakness... A small bounce in the last minutes of trading, but nothing important. All major indices closed near the lows on lower volume (the latter not surprising, the week before Christmas).
