Applying for Financial Analyst Program (Current view of the markets?)

Hello WSO,

I am applying for a Financial Analyst Program at my school which consists of equity research, etc. I am actually an Accounting undergrad and don't have much knowledge. One of the questions I am required to answer in a few sentences is "What is your view of the current stock market environment?" I don't really follow the markets, which is why I want to learn in this program, but I am trying to do research and answer the question...

Can anyone give me some hints to look for or help me answer this? Thank you so much!!
