It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. Investors have started the year looking for reasons for the market to head higher—and the market has delivered.

That could keep stocks from heading higher – the latest Goldman Sachs (GS) analyst estimate is for stocks to end the year where they traded on Friday. It's clear that we're still in cautious territory, and traders may find better opportunities on the downside in the coming weeks.
