"We've seen volatility come back into markets. Stocks have become more of a two-sided trade. Markets do seem more comfortable at these levels, but it'll probably take a month or two before things settle. We want to see more clarity with what's actually going on with trade, with underlying economic data. Those things will cause the market to break out one way or the other," said Shawn Cruz, senior markets specialist at TD Ameritrade.
