Stock Market Blog -Oct 12th

The market continued to sell off this week, with large swings in both directions. Maybe we'll see a double bottom in the S&P500, and get a bounce next week, as we approach October Options expiration on Friday, and also approach a support level from the drop we saw in August. Earnings season begins next week, so we could see some added volatility.

Options Implied Volatility is at an elevated level, which presents an opportunity to sell premium.
