The market started Tuesday with a gap up opening, hitting SPX 1849 in the opening minutes. Then bounced around between SPX 1832 and 1847 by Wednesday’s close. Thursday, however, started with a gap down opening and the market continued to decline into Friday’s close. For the week the SPX/DOW were -3.05%, the NDX/NAZ were -1.55%, and the DJ World index lost 2.55%. Economic reports for the week were sparse.

Why a stock market correction should be welcome... or not
- So after the Dow's nearly 500-point two-day drop, sending the index down 4.2% YTD, is this the start of the long-awaited correction?
- That might be a good thing, MarketWatch's Jonathan Burton writes: "Even a year without a meaningful correction is too long a stretch. Investors get comfortable; the market’s proverbial wall of worry breaks down."
- Josh Brown is disturbed by the lack of tolerance for stock market losses built up during the pre-taper environment, which has fostered an "overly sensitive, emotionally fragile condition" that's unhealthy.
- But it wasn't just U.S. stocks that got hooked on Fed stimulus; emerging markets around the globe also were lifted, and the Fed's pullback now has investors wondering whether those countries can stand on their own.
- The Fed’s policy-setting board meets next week, and new chief Janet Yellen is said to be "very careful about disruptions."
FOREIGN MARKETS
The Asian markets were mixed on the week for a net loss of
0.7%.
