Markets are trying to make up for a dismal August — so far, the S&P has shed around 3.4%, the Dow 2.8% and the Nasdaq 4.5% — but that might prove a difficult feat. Monday's rally was just one data point. Moreover, there are more obstacles ahead.
"The 'Wall of Worry' that had all but disappeared by July is being rebuilt – U.S. 10 year yields above 4%, anxiety rising in China, Europe's economy slumps, and a more sober tone from some U.S. retailers," Evercore ISI senior managing director Julian Emanuel wrote in a Sunday note. That's not news investors want to hear heading into September, a historically bad month for stocks. Hence, even if markets manage to claw back some losses by the end of this week, it'd be prudent to brace for another trying month.
