NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 21, 2017 / Geopolitical concerns combined with the resignation of multiple advisors to President Trump pressured markets lower last week. On Friday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 0.35 percent to close at 21,674.51, down 0.84 percent for the week, while the S&P 500 Index fell 0.18 percent to close at 2,425.55, down 0.64 percent for the week. The NASDAQ Composite Index decreased 0.09 percent to close at 6,216.53, down 0.65 percent for the week.
