"A deer in headlights is stuck in place and too overwhelmed to act. So too are stock investors as they await action from the Federal Reserve." http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...s-price-range-shrinks-to-smallest-in-20-years IMO an interesting read, includes a quick look at Greece and oil.and adds color to the discussions of whether or not the market may be topping sooner than later. Food for thought. HTH. YMMV.
But a lot of that could be caused by the low cost of trading now, along with the speed at which we get information. In the past, stocks were more volatile because news came to us in big chuncks... now we are getting almost hourly updates on Greece. So much of what used to cause wild swings is now happening in small pieces over time, so people are buying/selling based on tiny pieces of news. Faster and easier trading and more incremental news = stability.
