Ben Rains explores where the stock market stands after Wall Street ramped up the selling on the back of ‘higher for longer’ fears during what is a historically rough month for stocks.

Therefore, investors with long-term horizons might want to consider buying proven large-cap stocks at potentially attractive levels.
