Most leading technology stocks are trading sharply lower this morning. Google Inc.(NASDAQ:GOOG), Amazon Com Inc.(NASDAQ:AMZN), and Netflix Inc.(NASDAQ:NFLX) are all under selling pressure today. Traders must be careful when stocks become very stretched and extended. That is exactly what happened to all of the these leading technology names that are declining this morning.
