EmailToday's action was focused on the comments from European Central Bank President Mario Draghi. During his press conference, Mr. Draghi failed to announce new measures to help stem the European debt crisis. The S&P 500 quickly dropped to 1,360 and hovered around that level until the final hour of the session. During the final 60 minutes stocks were able to recover a portion of their losses, and the S&P 500 finished down 0.7%.
