Fed Tapering Watch- What You Need to Know

the stock market's greater anxiety, which has developed in recent weeks, is that the Fed will press ahead with a reduction in support, even as the economy remains fragile.  The recent data has failed to provide evidence of the convincing growth the Fed says it wants to see. Until then, stocks will benefit from the cheap money resulting from the Fed's bond purchases.  Next week's data should make or break the September expectations.  A strong jobs report will likely reinforce the view the Fed will opt to decrease its bond purchases at its September 17-18 meeting, while a weak one would do the opposite. Not on the economic calendar that must also be kept in mind is the possible military venture into Syria . This is a  market changer that may or may not happen at any time.  It is important to understand the different positions of USA allies and also what different countries like Russia and China are saying .

So how did SLOW MONEY OPTIONS do for the week?  I had announced 2 trade recommendations on Thursday.  I was unable to execute my AAPL call spread @ .05 cr.  but was able to execute the put spread for 8%. Remember always take the more conservative spread is the reason that I give you choices.  What I do is take all my recommendations just split the money between choices. You can trade just enough to give you an extra days results of trading or trade enough to give you a weeks worth of trading.  The choice is yours take responsibility.
