This Market Is Approaching a Critical Juncture
The extreme flux continues in stocks, with traders flip-flopping on sentiment faster than a short-order cook flips hamburgers. Yet if we look at both domestic and international equity benchmarks, we realize that the overwhelming sentiment here is bearish.

Tumult, I Say, Tumult!
The belch from the entity I’m calling “Mr. Volatility” can be heard on Wall Street in a big way.
