Stock market ETFs fall in after-hours trade as ex-Trump attorney implies he violated campaign law at behest of Trump
Popular exchange-traded funds Tuesday evening traded lower in after-hours action, following a series of stunning legal developments related to President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign. Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort was found guilty on eight charges, including tax fraud, and the president's ex-personal attorney, Michael Cohen, said he violated campaign law at the direction of a candidate for federal office.
