Good Evening, The market repeated it’s pattern of bouncing back after a large selloff the preceding day. Its that plain and simple. As long as it continues to work you can expect it. Although, one has to wonder if a second major hurricane could cause things to sell off a little more than they have done so far in 2017. That possibility is even a little stronger when coupled with the traditionally poor month of September. If a bigger dip were to take place in the coming days and I had cash on the sideline I would consider it a great buying opportunity. I’m looking for a strong run into 2018 as long as we don’t have any unexpected landmines such a significant issue with North Korea.
