Today's Research Reports on Trending Tickers: McDonald's and Starbucks

In this article:

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / December 17, 2018 / U.S. markets slumped on Friday as bank shares dragged equities lower amidst concerns about global economic slowdown after China’s industrial and sales growth report fell short of expectations. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 2.02 percent to close at 24,100.51, while the S&P 500 Index fell 1.91 percent to close at 2,599.95. The Nasdaq Composite Index plunged 2.26 percent to close at 6,910.67.

“Indeed, investors are right to be worried about global growth as China economy continues to sputter,” said OANDA’s Asia Pacific head of trading, Stephen Innes. “The data lend support to the market’s view that things will get worse in China before they get better, this despite investment rising,” Innes added.
