Sy Harding: It’s an old market maxim that the stock market often climbs a wall of worry. In the current rally the S&P 500 (NYSEARCA:SPY) has gained 29% since its October low, and the wall of worry it climbed has been impressive. Reports in October showed the economic slowdown in the first half of the Read more…
Bryan Rich: The theme of the global financial markets is now moving more toward the realization that growth will be ultra-slow (if not recession like territory), unemployment will remain persistently high and global economic shocks will continue to roll through.
