Market Strategy Report: Potential market headwinds in September

Our September 2023 report looks at some of the challenges the market faces this month—as well as some positive trends. [Logo: Zacks Investment Research] September Woes?

Those two huge events have skewed September's average results, and when they are stripped out, September doesn't look so bad. However, this September we are looking at a couple of factors that could spell trouble: Inflation data for August signaled that prices were on the rise again, and the end of the month could bring a fresh crop of U.S. government drama with the growing possibility of a shutdown.
