…” last week’s market turn had a clear catalyst: the Federal Reserve. this remains the cleanest way to understand why the stock market’s year of smooth sailing has come to an abrupt end. When the Fed held interest rates steady last week, investor reactions suggested the central bank had made a policy mistake by not taking the chance to lower rates before the economy showed signs of weakness.

(Bloomberg) — Buying US stocks after a slump of the scale witnessed over the past month has usually been profitable, according to a Goldman Sachs Group Inc. analysis of four decades of data.
Since 1980, the S&P 500 Index has generated a median return of 6% in the three months that followed a 5% decline from a recent high, according to the Goldman strategy team led by David Kostin. The benchmark has slumped 8.5% from its mid-July peak.
“Corrections of 10% have also been attractive buying opportunities more often than not,” although the track record is not as strong as after a smaller drop, Kostin wrote in a note. Returns after a 5% decline have been positive in 84% of episodes, the research shows.
