Remember when people were asking where all the market volatility went?  Well, it’s back.  We’re still just a few percentage points off highs, but the day-to-day moves in the market have become a little more volatile than we have seen earlier in the year.  I guess people are starting to come out of their summer trance.

Real quick, I want to give a birthday shout out to my brother, and co-worker, Casey Mullooly.  Casey turns 24 today.  Happy birthday, Case!

Here’s what I’ve been reading this morning:
