U.S. markets this week have painted the perfect picture of volatility. But exactly what does stock market volatility mean for investors?
Put simply, volatility is the amount of uncertainty about the size of changes in the stock market.
If there's one number that summarizes the stock market correction over the last week, it's $2.1 trillion.
That's the amount of money U.S. markets have lost in just the last six days.
Here's a few comparisons to illustrate just how massive that loss is...

Peter Schiff, economist, best-selling author, and CEO of Euro Pacific Capital, believes a U.S. dollar crisis is underway.
"The dollar is very overvalued...and the dollar is a bubble," he told Newsmax Prime on Aug. 11. "This dollar bubble is going to burst."
Indeed, two weeks later and Schiff's prediction proved timely. The U.S. dollar index has suffered a fourth-straight loss, and U.S. markets have plummeted in the worst weekly sell-off in four years.

As widely expected, the Fed finally ended its massive bond-purchasing program.
Now the market will turn its focus to interest rates.
Will the Fed raise rates next year? If so, what effects will that have?
The Fed is ultimately reactive, exerting little, if any, control in the long run. Low rates are here only as long as the Fed can manage them.
At that point, it is time to look out.
