Fed Fears Put Stock Markets Into Reverse
The stock market gave investors a small reminder of its capacity for volatility on Wednesday, giving up early gains and closing modestly lower. The move was tiny considering the extent to which the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) and Nasdaq Composite have risen to record highs recently. Yet it still left investors with some nagging doubts about what the future might bring, and the abruptness of the move in the last couple hours of trading threw market participants a bit off kilter. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) wasn't able to avoid losses either.
