Evening Update – Dow Futures plummet 300 points

 

Good Evening

As you may know, the Dow Jones Index Futures trading resumes electronically on Sunday evenings.  It appears that traders have returned from the weekend, having absorbed the US/China lack of trade progress and the continued tariff concerns.

Dow Jones Futures are “trading down” (to the negative) over 300 points as of 10:45 PM Central time August 4.

How the regular stock markets will do on Monday is yet to be seen.   I remain 100% G-Fund in my personal TSP, a very conservative approach, with minimal returns, however a path I have self-assessed and determined that “works for me” out of an abundance of caution.

Talk to you soon…
