CNBC's
"Fast Money" have been amazed and shocked at the rapid decline in the U.S. stock market this week. Despite the carnage on Wall Street, the gang is currently hunting for the next big trend that will arise out of the massive selloff. The crew knows that at times like these, it pays to be in the right sectors and out of the wrong ones.

Bank of America
(BAC) - Get Report

Johnson & Johnson
(JNJ) - Get Report
