It was sell-off mode today in stocks, with the Dow down -1% and the Nasdaq down -2%, yet it really was the -50% drop today in First Republic stock that seems to be the catalyst for the market turmoil (the drop lower in the broad market that accelerated around 10:00 am PT was just minutes after the acceleration of sell-off in First Republic).  Of course, the challenging news there was known all afternoon and night yesterday and all morning today, so it was really a mid-day realization that those problems are not going to be easily resolved (selling assets and raising new equity), and then the broad market has to digest that spill-over effects that could create.

Lots more earnings news to come this week.
