I think your post accurately describes the market - no clear direction. I think the market will head much lower, but I am fully invested in a money market fund rather than short or long. I see a great deal of risk being in the market on either side. I think its best to collect interest until the market shows its hand.

I doubt that the market will gap up Mon. or Tues., but instead will be flat awaiting the Federal Reserve meeting Tuesday. Furthermore, I believe the market has already factored in a 1/4 point decrease and probably a 1/2 point decrease in interest rates. Unless we get something greater than a 1/2 point decrease, the market will likely sell-off. The next market mover will focus on pre-announcement of third quarter earnings. Unfortunately, most of these will be negative, thus putting more downward pressure on stock prices. Bill W.
