this is a guy who has clearly been to Walmart during his numerous trips to California, Novum Eboracum and Bostonia...

I hear "foro" in this audio clip, which I think is the same as the one you would have heard. The final "-o" does run into the "n-" in "non" a little bit though, which does make it sound a little like "forum," but I still hear it as "foro."

"In the market" sounds fine to me. The market is a large area, and being within that area means you are "in the market." I would never say "on the market."
