This is my first attempt at using the web as an oracle. We will tally answers and see who wins.
Of what year?
Long Answer: Considering that October 5th is within 2 weeks after most companies' ex-dividend date, most stocks are rebounding after the steep drop that occurs. Additionally, stocks are generally valued higher going into the 4th Quarter as dividends are almost always higher, so the returns are higher relative to other investments (bonds, etc.)
Short Answer: UP!!
The absolute answer is both. At any given moment it will record the last trade as up, or down. So from one trade to the next, it could be going up or down. The only way it can truly be flat is if the market is closed that day.
If you mean will it close higher that day than the day before, then my answer is yes.
