The KUIK Closing Market Report for Tuesday, August 11:
It was a down day on Wall Street.
Index Direction Change Units Index Time Change
Dow Down                   (212) points         17,403 1:54 PM
S&P500 Down -1.0% percent           2,084     (20.11)
Nasdaq Composite Down -1.3% percent           5,037     (65.01)
30 Year Treasury Down                    (10) Basis Points            2.80 Annual Yield
September crude fell 4.2%, to settle at $43.08 a barrel on the Nymex, hitting its lowest level in over six years. Oil was under pressure after the move by China’s central bank to devalue the yuan by 1.9% raised concerns about the Chinese economy and its appetite for crude and other commodities that will now cost more in China.
Serving the West Side first I am Bill Roller of BR Capital for 1360 KUIK.
