The markets are idling. It seems that investors are simply waiting for “the move” but doing nothing. From experience, the stock market could be setting up for an uptick in volatility that may include a false move (or moves).
For the week, the S&P 500 Index (INDEXSP:.INX) was down 0.7%. But the week ended with an exclamation point as news about the FBI reopening the Hilary Clinton email case caused a quick selloff friday.
This year’s election has been wild, to say the least. And it seems that we’re seeing a reverberation of the in the global bond markets (be sure to read Callum Thomas’ post from this morning). Yields have surged, only adding to investor uncertainty.
The election is just around the corner and the markets are still in flux. Have a plan, stay disciplined. And enjoy this week’s “Top Trading Links” as a look inside the markets.
