Consumer confidence bounced in October: the Conference Board index rose 7.5 pts to 91.7 from an upwardly revised 84.2. Present Situation +8.6 to 120.4; Expectations +6.9 to 72.6. Inflation expectations eased but sit at 5.8%. One more read before the Fed. Not a recommendation.

Builders said they were gloomy yesterday (NAHB index: 29). Today's data backed them up: September housing starts fell 5.2% to a 1.221M pace, down 7.4% y/y. Permits held near flat at 1.400M, so the pipeline isn't shrinking fast, but it isn't growing either. Not a recommendation.

A trip to Arlington National Cemetery in Washington, DC and The tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Over 430,000 people have been laid to rest on these sacred grounds. A reminder that freedom is not free. Thank you to all who have served and their families. #freedomIsNotFree

With markets at or near highs What are you doing exactly these days ? What should investors be doing? @RyanDetrick @SchwabNetwork check it out here :
Don't short a dull market, as it's a "really dull market," according to @RyanDetrick. The large-cap tech "comeback that is happening right now is real" and is something we could see continue into the fourth quarter, he tells @sam_vadas. He also dives into what a rate hike means for the market and why he believes the Fed isn't as hawkish as some may think. For more market news, tune in at: SchwabNetwork.com/?CID=SM:Tw…
