Major averages fell yesterday on noticeably higher volume due to the end of the third quarter. The S&P 500 and NASDAQ Composite now sit just under their respective 50-day moving averages.. Leading stocks are looking more troubled. It is a battle between easy money policies and an economy which is taking longer to heal than expected despite QE. Let your position sizes, if any, reflect this challenging period.
