"There always remains an opportunity to make a new start."

Though it may not seem so when you first encounter a serious blow, you can never lose two of the most important assets you have. These are the power of your mind and your freedom to use it. Once you have turned them to understanding what laid you low, you can begin forming new plans. You may not have the money you once had; you may lack the allies you had cultivated. But you still have the benefit of a universe that eventually rewards honest effort, as well as gaining the experience of mistakes you will never make again. Remember, no matter where you are now, whatever you can conceive and believe, you can achieve.

"Recap Aug. 30"

Stocks drifted sideways to finish the week higher by a healthy 2.7% on the S&P 500, leaving the broad index near the upper end of its August range and within 3.5% of its high-water mark.  The highest close for the Dollar Index since May 2017 helped pressure commodities, as WTI crude and gold finished at $55 a barrel and $1,523 an ounce, respectively, and Treasurys ended little changed with the two- and 10-year yields both settling near 1.5%.  The VIX closed at 18.5.
