Move in the S&P 500 provides an answer By Steve Goldstein, MarketWatch As President Donald Trump releases the “principles” of his tax reform, it’s worth delving into how much is already baked into the stock market. It’s not an easy exercise. People don’t fill out exit polls about why they’ve bought or sold a stock. With a little math, though,...

Do you like the idea of 'indexing,' which is simply an investment in the broad market based on faith that it will fare well, given enough time? To that end, indexing in, say a fund like the S&P 500 SPDR Trust (which just tracks the performance of the S&P 500 index), is also a passive acknowledgement that it's difficult to...

If anyone thought the real estate market was slowing down as a precursor to a contraction, they were wrong… at least based on March's evidence.
