Why stock markets could fall early this week
The S&P is currently camping at the lows under 1900 and it's a similar picture for the Dow and Nasdaq
It's very hard to separate what are end of month flows from sentiment but the fact that the dollar or risk couldn't rise significantly on a hawkish Dudley, and then fell on a minor miss in the home sales data is telling, at least for the US session.

That man Button hits another homer
