Top Trading Links: Stocks Struggle To Find Their Way

Another tough week for stocks and the financial markets.  We haven’t seen many “big” down days, but the S&P 500 Index (INDEXSP:.INX) has been down 9 days in a row!

This has left a cloud of uncertainty over the market. And although the election will lift one piece of uncertainty from the equation, there’s more to it than just that.

Interest rates have been creeping higher, the Dollar is firm, and equities are weak. Plus the Fed is up to its usual games and could raise rates in December.  A lot to juggle for investors.  But fear is finally in the air (see the VIX Volatility Index), so maybe a trading low is near.

Today we have a packed set of trading links for you. Enjoy some of the best blogs from this week…
