Today is the first day of fall, and it certainly feels like it here in New Jersey. 50 degree weather here this morning, and it feels like football and bonfire weather. Hopefully (fingers crossed) we can have an autumn of relatively smooth sailing in the markets. Not likely, but we can dream, right?
