Market Update Into 10/18: Recovery Season Here?
Back-to-back choppy weeks for $SPY and $QQQ have prompted mixed reviews from traders on what lies ahead for Q4. Some, argue a larger correction is justified while others shout “buy the dip” from their local keyboard. Monday trading opened slow for both the $SPY and $QQQ, seeing the $SPY selloff nearly 2% into Wednesday’s open. The rest of the week was met with power, continuing last week’s bounce from the lows. With fresh all-time highs looming overhead the coming weeks seem to be make or break for what plays out into the new year.
