The Breakfast Briefing: U.S. Stock Futures Tip Lower In Countdown To Jobs Data

TedTed
edited May 2018 in The Bullpen
FYI: U.S. stock futures dipped slightly on Friday, but traded in tight ranges as investors focused on the upcoming monthly jobs report, on watch for a rebound for jobs growth.

Trade talks between the U.S. and China were also drawing attention, as the second day of discussions took place. The U.S. has reportedly handed Beijing’s team a lengthy list of demands aimed at cutting the trade imbalance between the two.
Regards,
Ted
