Stocks Recover After Rocky Day

U.S. stocks finished higher Thursday after a bumpy day, Reuters reported Oct. 1. A basket of 500 U.S. companies hit a two-week low, then recovered sharply as interest on 10-year government loans slipped from 5.34%, the highest since 2002, per Yahoo Finance. In my view, that's a breather, not a fix: home loans stay pricey.
