‘Still Too Early’ for Stocks: Pro

Too many economic factors suggest it's time to sit out the stock market right now, Stephen Weiss of Short Hills Capital said Monday.

"I still think it's too early," he said.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled more than 200 points midday. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq were also sharply in the red, while the CBOE Volatility Index traded above 20.

On CNBC's "Fast Money," Weiss pointed to market accustomed to a climate of "tremendous global bank easing."

But a credit crunch in China and a shrunken balance sheet for the European Central Bank looked to be changing the story, he added.

"The world's got to get used to this being new case," Weiss said. "And if we don't see the economy improve, then we're in for a lot more trouble, a lot more pain, so, no, I'm not buying now."

TheStreet CIO Stephanie Link said that bonds needed to stabilize for stocks to perform once again.

In the meantime, she added, corporate quarterly results were the next possible catalyst.

"I think earnings are going to be pretty good," Link said.
