This is an important week for economic data, specifically pointing to the jobs reports.  In recent months, the data has been much more friendly, perhaps pointing toward some stability.  However, the recovery may have stalled, and the momentum from a good number may be lacking.  In fact, a recent report of online help wanted ads fell by 101,800 in September, which suggests that Friday's non-farm payrolls report may not be as healthy as everyone expects.  We'll see the early reaction from the ADP report then Thursday's jobless claims thereafter.  Let's not forget the turn of the calendar is on Thursday.  Could a correction be far behind?
