The Market On Tuesday

  Good morning. It is 51 degrees and raw looking out there, here in Upstate NY. It's gray, a little windy, and the feel of Winter coming in is out there in spite of the temperature. Busy day here, Tuesday is my extra busy day and in truth all I want to do is go back to bed!

  At 8:25 a.m. ET futures are flat and the price of oil per barrel is down. The market is poised to open flat except...

  Any second now the long awaited government report on jobs created in September comes out. It's all about the report today and the same truth we've seen since the recovery is going to hold. The numbers need to be a lot better.
