Good Morning Traders (thanks for the handover in highlandlad's absence this week pj),
DOW Snapshot from previous trading session
"U.S. stocks fell Tuesday as renewed worries about European banks weighed on financial stocks and investors flocked to such safe-haven assets such as the dollar, Treasurys and gold. During last week's stock rally, the Dow turned positive for the year. But Tuesday's losses quickly turned the index back into the red. On Friday, the major indexes gained more than 1%, after a government report showed fewer jobs were lost in July than economists had expected. U.S. markets were closed Monday for Labor Day. "We're in September, which is traditionally a softer month for stocks, and so far we've escaped that," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist for Avalon Partners. "But lingering worries won't diminish until we get more indicators that show the decline in economic activity is leveling off and beginning to turn around again."" [Source: cnnmoney.com]
