FYI: Stocks fell fast and haven gold and bond assets rose on Monday, the second “risk off” day in two sessions to kickoff 2015. The S&P 500 suffered its biggest one-day drop since October, though this broad-market benchmark has fallen just 3.4% from its all-time high. Traders said there appeared to be little conviction behind the selling, using statements like “far from despondent” to characterize Monday’s action. At this point, traders said that investors are likely equally anxious about getting stuck wrong-footed
