Traders said large fund managers and institutions were selling riskier investments like stocks, and fleeing into the relative safety of government bonds. Many of those investors were initially optimistic about the fourth-quarter outlook for stocks, traders said, but were changing course after weak economic data from the U.S. and Europe. Sectors seen as growth-sensitive posted sharp declines, with materials dropping 2.3% and industrials shedding 1.9%. Utilities stocks, seen as a defensive bet, climbed 0.9%.

I never really like working in Stock Market since the risk present is bit too much to handle and if we are to be successful then we must tackle this risk in order to succeed. I am very lucky that I am working in Forex trading with high class broker like OctaFX to work with where they have outstanding facilities which includes rebate program where I get 15 dollars profits per lot size trade, it’s a really perfect amount to have to be safe.
