It is always unstable, just not as actively as the last few weeks.  If you don't panic and leave it alone it will balance out.  We have been in for quite a while, and are still way ahead of bank interest in our investments.  The only ones I knew who really lost it panicked and tried to sell at it's low point, that is when you should be buying.  Anyway it has worked for us.

It goes up and down, that's how the stock market works.

It will get better, after the Fed hike issue gets settled.

I think that the stock market is going through a typical, and cyclical, correction. It is reacting to world events such as the Chinese economy and a lot of institutional investors as well as day traders are capitalizing on the roller coaster swings and, simultaneously, causing wider spikes in gains and losses. personally I think it is a great time to buy and a horrible time to sell. An investor is able to buy long term performers/capital reserve heavy stocks (like Disney and Apple) for a song. I subscribe to a value investing approach-buying for the long run-and try to minimize speculation and reactionary investing.  The big buck is in the shorter spikes if timed right but I would rather be like the tortoise and win the race.

Anyone have thoughts on what is going on in the stock market and how long it will last?
It is hard to tell. The stock is volatile. Buyers and sellers watch the trends and they change sometimes hourly. I can't predict what will be tomorrow. BMaston12

Unfortunately the stock market has always been a wacky ride and you must have a certain kind of stamina to deal with it.  That being said, I don't have that kind of stamina and my theory is whatever will be, will be and I can't control it.  So, bottom line, if you can't stand the heat - get out of the kitchen!
