The Closing Bell: Wall St. Falters As Trade Worries Weigh
FYI: Stocks fell on Thursday as an ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China and worries of renewed legal issues for President Donald Trump dampened investor sentiment.
All four major indexes finished down with the Dow, -.30% S&P50, -.17% Nasdaq, -.13% and Rut 2000 -.30%
Weak materials and energy sectors weighed on the market in what some strategists describe as a typical summer session characterized by low trading volumes.
Ten of the eleven S&P 500 sectors were in the red. Technology, XLK, was the only sector in positive territory Regards, Ted
