Good MorningThe trading week got off to a shaky start on Monday when an early gain quickly turned sour. The major indices all began the session with gains but they were given up within the first half-hour of trading. At the low of the day, the S&P 500 was down by about 1.75%.
The reason for Monday’s decline is hope. Hope for another round of stimulus is fading fast leaving investors wondering what will happen now. With election uncertainty in the air and no vaccine for COVID-19 in sight, the only thing to be sure of is volatility.
The rest of the week hinges on earnings. This is the first full week of earnings for the 3rd quarter reporting cycle and the calendar is full with over 80 S&P 500 companies on the list. Names like Coca-Cola, AT&T, Netflix, and Tesla are sure to attract attention and may drive volatility if the results are not enough to satisfy a fragile market.

From Our Partners | | Trump is launching a new $250 bill - but that may be a distraction. Behind the scenes, Executive Order 14241 is orchestrating what analyst Porter Stansberry calls a total U.S. money reset, bypassing conventional legal channels under the guise of national security.
The last time America reset its currency - under Nixon in the 1970s - it created an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over 50 years. Stansberry has identified three asset categories connected to Trump's initiative that could surge, plus his single top investment move. | | Watch the documentary briefing and find out which side you land on |
