Stocks could be in for a challenging week, as the calendar rolls to September — historically the worst month of the year for the S&P 500. The August employment report looms at the end of the week, and it is expected to be a key piece of data that will influence the Federal Reserve's next rate decision later in the month.
Markets could be volatile around the data and also ahead of a three day Labor Day weekend. There are a few earnings, including Best Buy and Campbell Soup. |
