As Fed Minutes Cause Volatility, Stocks Plunge
It seems that stocks are in trouble a bit as investors are scared about the Federal Reserve’s bond-buying stimulus program. In a volatile business as stocks, the stocks dove into bad areas after the release of the minutes from the Federal Reserves claiming that they are still on track to slow the stimulus for the central bank. However, they didn’t give any news on whether the slowing down will happen next month or not.

That is what you see in an economy bumbling along at 2 percent,” said Erik Davidson, deputy chief investment officer for Wells Fargo Private Bank in San Francisco.
This is making others have to stress on what they are going to do if they go too faster. It seems that there is a lot of finger pointing and this drives many people to do things that you wouldn’t expect. This is what the stock market if they are going to have any success in anything. Some feel that this is the best approach and that it should be reasonable in the long run.
