action minor people saying traffic
You don't strip-search someone for a traffic violation. They made a mistake. They don't want a class-action suit. Other people will come out of the woodwork, on minor charges, saying (police) strip-searched them, too.
although float good means money news remain side technical
This is very good news for the technical side of the market. It means there's still enough money to float everything. It's not just the big-cap stocks, although I still think they remain the leaders.
