Wall Street is coming off a losing session, with the major benchmarks posting their worst day going back to the Aug. 5th sell-off as chip names came under pressure and the latest economic data implied slowing growth for the U.S. economy. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 600 points, or 1.5%, while the S&P 500 slid 2.1%. The Nasdaq Composite dropped 3.3%.

Traders are bracing for further volatility in September, historically a weak month for equities, with many investors anticipating a pullback of 5% or more in the coming weeks. Still, some bullish investors expect any decline in stocks could be a buying opportunity.

“The next eight weeks should be a prime, a very prime opportunity, to rebalance your portfolio, get more diversified, and actually let the market activity go in your favor,” Chris Hyzy, investment chief at Merrill and Bank of America Private Bank, said on CNBC’s “Closing Bell” on Tuesday.

Corporate earnings season is largely behind investors, but reports from retailers *****’s Sporting Goods and Dollar Tree are set to release before the open on Wednesday. Hewlett Packard Enterprise is set to post earnings after the close.

Traders will also look to the latest releases on the U.S. trade deficit, job openings and labor turnover (JOLTS) survey, and factory orders data.
