The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

This morning, I said 4,395 was the key number to pierce to get me more excited about this bounce and the S&P 500 hit 4394.87 and stalled - then tumbled.  

This is actually good news, as it is part of the discovery process for stocks and investors.  Weaker hands sold the rip, but buyers have once again reemerged.

Keep in mind, buyers came into the market yesterday at 3:15.

I fret about the lack of single- family home supply because it’s the foundation of the long-term economy - household formation.

As much as I would like to force the issue, I can't get ahead of some of the technical tests and also worry about the reaction to the FOMC decision tomorrow.
