Stocks are higher across the board halfway through Tuesday trading after Monday’s massive snapback rally that followed four days of losses. Worries over inflation, tapering of the never ending quantitative easing and interest rate increases sparked last week’s selling. However, the “buy the dip” crowd jumped in on Monday as the market bounced back from the worst week since last October. With summer now officially underway, it will be interesting to see if the Reddit /wallstreetbets “meme” stock traders stay active or take a summer vacation. Trading volume typically drops during the summer months.
