"It was all going so well"
U.S. equities hit record highs on Monday as Wall Street kicked off the fourth quarter on a high note.
Greg Guenthner of the Rude Awakening blog, says this “trader’s paradise” is just warming up:
"Investors aren’t feeling a lick of discomfort this year. Volatility is dead and buried. Manic market swings are no more. In fact, the craziest thing about this year’s market is that it’s one of the sanest investing environments of all time."
"Investors have devoured every stock market dip"

"I’m not predicting that the FAANGs and other year-to-date winners will flame out during the fourth quarter. Ideally, the tech leaders from the first half of the year will simply trade in a sideways range to digest their gains. That’s healthy market action"

"The energy sector has rocketed more than 10% in September"
"Retail stocks soared 7% this month"
"Bank stocks jumped 8%"
"Small-caps ripped off their lows and posted gains of 6%"
