U.S. Stocks Lower Again

U.S. stocks ended little changed on Thursday, with the Dow industrials recouping much of a 206-point deficit, as investors balanced worries about global growth against mostly better-than-expected U.S. earnings and economic reports.

“The market is not trading off of fundamental news, it is trading off worries, whether it’s the importing of weak economic growth or Ebola,” said Mark Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott.

“Volatility has reared its ugly head again, but we had nothing for the better part of 16 to 18 months. When you have nothing and go to something, its seems magnified, it’s much more pronounced,” said Chip Cobb, portfolio manager at BMT Asset Management.
