The market was down everywhere overseas, but the warning from the Sony president of overvaluation is not a good sign.

The missing link:

"TOKYO - The stock market's benchmark index fell two percent after the president of Sony Corp warned the electronic giant's shares were overvalued and like a ``bubble,'' shaking investor confidence in other high-tech stocks as well. The Nikkei 225 stock average tumbled 374.28 points or 2.02 percent to close at 18,168.27."

(OK, so it wasn't a link, but I've always wanted to say that...)
