The general feeling appears to be that of “treading water” for a while.
Stimulus is coming though.Comment

Trump tweets for standalone bill for stimulus checks; futures rise
Oct. 7, 2020 5:26 AM ET|About: S&P 500 Futures (SPX)|By: Kim Khan, SA News Editor
President Trump continues to ease off his earlier shutdown of all stimulus negotiations, calling on Speaker Pelosi to agree to a clean bill on just $1,200 stimulus checks.
"If I am sent a Stand Alone Bill for Stimulus Checks ($1,200), they will go out to our great people IMMEDIATELY. I am ready to sign right now. Are you listening Nancy?" he tweeted.
A little more than an hour before market close yesterday, Trump sent stocks sharply into the red after he declared there would be no more negotiations on a stimulus bill until after the election.
...
So in other words, Trump randomly tweets and drops the market, then his advisors try and calm him, and he softens.
Or...he’s a crook, and his mates are making millions shorting the market just before each tweet.Comment
