Welcome to 2 Question Tuesday. This week’s questions were:

1. Do you expect more wild swings in the stock market this week?
2. Why isn’t the stock market paying attention to the labor market?

Phil, Mike, and Larry talk about last week’s roller coaster in the stock market and Goldman Sachs’ prediction that there will much more selling this week due to trend-following algorithmic funds. They then discussed last month’s 118% increase in job cubs from a year ago, the largest number of job cuts for any January since the depths of the Great Recession, and why the stock market is ignoring these numbers?
