The S & P 500 on Tuesday traded about 7% below a record high reached last month. Besides, he said, it is hard to think of a market correction occurring in August, when a bottom is historically more likely to happen in the month of October.

He was courageous enough to try to do one of the hardest things in running, win a race from the front, wire-to-wire. 😱 A STUNNING upset in the men’s 1500m as AMERICAN COLE HOCKER takes gold! This was the race that all running nerds had circled on their Olympic schedules, but not because of Hocker. Oldest brother Henrik finished fifth in the 1,500 meters at the 2012 Olympics. He said he tried to respond, but ran out of gas – 1500 meters had proven “just 100 meters too much.”“I ruined it for myself by going way too hard,” he said.

Monday's global markets sell-off saw Wall Street's "fear gauge" spike to its highest level since 2020, but there are a few stocks that may help investors stabilize their portfolios in these volatile times. Coterra has a beta of 0.23, the lowest on the list of stocks assembled for this screen. While the company's second-quarter adjusted earnings missed Wall Street's estimates, Coterra's production for the period came in ahead of analysts' expectations. Coterra shares also offer investors income, paying a dividend yield of 3.4%. Major Wall Street firms said a recent pullback in shares — which are off 4% in the past week — presented a buying opportunity for investors.

Greenlight Capital's David Einhorn believes the outcome of the U.S. presidential election is insignificant to the markets, as he sees elevated inflation on the back of a burdening fiscal deficit under both candidates. "From a market perspective, we don't think it matters very much who wins," Einhorn wrote in a letter to investors dated Tuesday. We believe this supports our ongoing expectations of higher secular inflation in the coming years." Vice President Kamala Harris has entered the race following President Joe Biden's exit, going head to head with former President Donald Trump in the November election. The federal debt is now at $34.5 trillion , or about $11 trillion higher than where it stood in March 2020.

.VIX 5D mountain The VIX is well off its highs from Monday as the stock market tries to claw back its losses. The VIX, often called Wall Street's "fear gauge," reflects expected volatility over the next 30 days based on the price of S & P 500 options. "Excluding the current shock, there have been 39 VIX spikes to above 35 in our empirical analysis since 1999. Market shock of this magnitude happens on average more than once per year, but is unlikely to sustain. The lingering question now is whether the concerns that pushed the market into a cascade of selling are alleviated," Krosby said.

A carry trade involves an investor borrowing a currency with low interest rates and reinvesting it in higher-yielding assets elsewhere — taking advantage of that differential to make a financial gain. Investors piled into yen carry trades in recent years, attracted by Japan's low volatility and ultra-loose monetary policy. Global stock markets meanwhile plunged as "safe haven" assets such as the Swiss franc and U.S. Treasurys were bolstered. "You can't unwind the biggest carry trade the world has ever seen without breaking a few heads," Kit Juckes, chief foreign exchange strategist at Societe Generale, said in a Monday note. Trichet told CNBC Tuesday: "The correction can be seen as a healthy correction, in some respects.

Tuesday's market rebound doesn't mean the market is yet in the clear — instead, investors should brace for more market volatility following Monday's global sell-off, according to Goldman Sachs chief global equity strategist Peter Oppenheimer. The S & P 500 rose 1.04% on Tuesday in a broad relief rally that lifted all 11 of its sectors. Nonetheless, the correction hasn't yet fully run its course, Oppenheimer told CNBC's " Squawk on the Street " on Tuesday. However, Oppenheimer doesn't necessarily think the correction is bad for the market. According to Strategas strategist Todd Sohn, Monday's spike in the volatility index could be a positive omen for equities in the medium term.

As Japanese stocks plummet, confirming a bear market, there are opportunities in small-cap and domestic-focused companies, according to fund manager Richard Kaye. 'Yen is just getting normal' Kaye believes the Yen's appreciation is a return to normalcy rather than an anomaly. "If you look even on Friday in all the bloodbath, domestic names, small cap names [were] actually outperforming," he noted. Indeed, the MSCI Japan Small Cap index has fallen 8.6% since July 11, outperforming the 14.4% decline in the MSCI Japan index on a local currency basis. In U.S. dollar terms, the losses, while proportionate, are smaller, with ETFs such as the iShares MSCI Japan Small-Cap ETF falling by 2.1% compared to the iShares MSCI Japan ETF, which is down 8.9% over the same period.

LONDON — U.S. stocks are on course to open in the red Monday, with Japanese stocks suffering their worst day of trading since the 1980s and a global equities sell-off intensifying over fears of a U.S. economic slowdown. The Nikkei’s 12.4% fall marked the worst day for the Japanese index since 1987’s “Black Monday” — the sudden and unexpected stock market crash that raised fears of a depression. Noriko Hayashi / Bloomberg via Getty ImagesIn recent weeks, rising concerns around a potential U.S. recession have spooked investors. A rise in the value of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar — making Japanese assets more expensive for holders of other currencies — has also likely played a role in the selling. Even so, some investors put their money into U.S. Treasury bonds — so-called ‘haven’ assets that act as stores of wealth in volatile moments.

It may be even harder now that cracks are forming in the labor market. The jobs report was not a disaster, by any stretch, and it’s no guarantee of a looming recession. But it was a surprise, and economists expressed concerns about how quickly the labor market appears to have downshifted. For Wall Street, the surprise slowdown was the bitter cherry on top of a sundae of disappointing tech earnings. (In other words, Wall Street may have overreacted because, well, that’s just kinda the way Wall Street does things.)

watch nowCNBC's Jim Cramer shared his playbook for the brutal global market sell-off on Monday. Identify what's actually wrongAlthough the global sell-off hit U.S. markets hard, "the epicenter of the damage" was Japan, Cramer said. The sell-off started when Japan's stock market posted its worst drop since the stock market crash of 1987 known as Black Monday. The sell-off is sparked by money managers who think the Federal Reserve should have cut rates last week. Investors can also take advantage of the decline in interest rates and buy stocks that yield more than 4%, Cramer said.
