U.S. stocks could be in for a bumpy ride in the second quarter, and you can blame politics for that, according to one expert. The start of the second quarter on Wall Street brings new opportunities for investors, but it will also bring more stock market volatility, according to Kristina Hooper, U.S. Investment Strategist at Allianz Global Investors. 'We certainly have some level of momentum,' she said. 'But we think we could see something of a repeat of the first quarter in terms of periods of momentum upwards and periods of momentum downwards.' Hooper believes some of the anticipated volatility will be due to the presidential campaigns. TheStreet's Rhonda Schaffler has more from Wall Street.
