Despite recent volatility, CNN’s Ali Velshi offered a notably positive story about the stock market on “American Morning” October 1, although anchor John Roberts tried to dampen his enthusiasm.

“[F]rom the beginning of the year, take a look at this, the Dow is up 11.5 percent. In February we had a dip, in August, another dip. The S&P 500, very broad representation of the market, is up 7.5 percent. And the NASDAQ, which is technology heavy, is up about 12 percent,” said Velshi.
