Usually when the market losses 1%, has two day's worth of triple-digit losses, and sees the revival of meltdown rumors begin to circle, there's cause for concern. And while that sense of unease has not dissipated, this week's relatively benign decline, devoid of the gut-wrenching, head-turning, fear-inspiring volatility that has come to punctuate the trading landscape in the past couple of sessions, was a welcome relief for investors who are desperately searching for terra firma. Are we starting to see a bottom? Or are we in a holding pattern as we head to a much lower, much darker place? The Fast Money will be watching. And we will also be watching the action next week, which, in terms of economic and earnings news, will be relatively light as we head into earnings season. If we've seen anything in the past couple of months, it's that slow news weeks can lead to a perilous vacuum in which traders, in all their gloom and doom, whack the sell button until their thumbs bleed. Trade carefully. But there are some events worth watching. On the earnings front, we have RIMM and Micron on Wednesday. RIMM has been one of the pillars of what's working in Tech, and many will look to it to provide guidance on the Tech spending front going. (On that front, the CEO of Qualcom joins us Tuesday). Other noteworthy names include Monsanto and Constellation Brands. But the big news will be the jobs report, which is released on Friday. That report will go a long way towards confirming the extent of the downturn, and with the Fed having used up most of its proverbial bullets its previous rate cuts, some might worry what the Fed, or any anyone for that matter, might do to help the market stay afloat if the Jobs number is really bad.. As always, an open market is one in which you can make money, and we will try to do just that all next week. I hope you join us. .
