As they say with the start of college football season, it is game on!

As we move into the September and October months with high market  levels but little upward momentum,  there is clearly a question "Is a significant correction just around the corner?"  The summer vacation season is over and everyone will be getting back to work on Tuesday.

Several points to keep in mind:

- Always make sure you are prepared for the downside as well as the upside.  

- I hear a lot of people who normally don't talk about stocks talking quite a bit about stocks now.  Usually significant interest is highest at the worst time to invest.

- M&A activity is increasing.

Now, make sure you suited up with your pads and you have your head on a swivel.  Are you ready to hit the field?!  Like a good boy scout - Be prepared.
