But then the latest bombshell on Hillary Clinton hit, and stocks slumped.  Based on new evidence (who said Russia wasn't trying to influence the election?), the FBI announced that it was re-opening their investigation on the Democratic candidate. Stocks swooned, as Clinton's lock on the presidency seems not so sure now. The Dow fell sharply, but coming into the close, is unchanged on the day. Volatility is back, and nearly certain to stay with us for awhile.
