Similarly, the market going down is generally related to other factors.

Apr 2018

Starting in January, there appears to be a distinct 'character change' in the market. We have market 'choppiness', and a 'correction'. 3 months time has significance. Social mood with the red state teacher strikes - especially where successful, school violence protests and the Trump travails seem to be having impact.
