Market Talk- August 17, 2018

Although we saw some small relief bounces in Asia, there are still many questions left unanswered. The Nikkei managed a 0.35% recovery, which was pretty much where it [played all day. The Yen is still acting as a store for safety and in late US trading we see it edging in the low 110’s, possibly […]

A mixed opening seen in Asia this morning which eventually turned into a down day given the lack of volume and positivity. Even though the US sent a confident tone, the after hours trading in Facebook unnerved many tech stocks. Facebook traded nearly 20% lower in futures terms after the Q2 revenue miss. It was […]
