Reuters•1 hour agoAsian shares fall on soft China data, trade war fears
Asian shares fell on Monday as new data showed China's economy slowed slightly in the second quarter, compounded by fears of a full-scale Sino-U.S. trade war looming over markets. Official data showed China's economy grew 6.7 percent in the second quarter of 2018, cooling from the 6.8 percent growth registered in each of the previous three quarters. While the GDP figures were in line with market expectations, the new data also showed slower-than-expected growth in China's industrial output, pointing to slowing momentum and prompting some analysts to call for stronger government measures to support growth.

U.S. Stocks Rise, Post Weekly Gains
U.S. stocks climbed Friday and posted weekly gains, as a solid start to the corporate earnings season helped investors brush aside fears about a global trade rift. Stocks have shown resilience in recent weeks, even as the U.S. and China have ramped up punitive trade measures on each other that some analysts fear could hurt global growth. The S&P 500 dipped midweek after the White House said it would assess 10% tariffs on an additional $200 billion of Chinese goods—although it then rebounded Thursday as technology shares rallied.

10 Top Nasdaq Stocks to Buy Now
Not all that long ago, a Nasdaq listing of a stock was met with a bit of derision. While it wasn't as lowly as the "pink sheets," the up-and-coming exchange - which was more of a telecommunications network and less of an actual trading floor - just didn't have street cred. Thus, Nasdaq stocks weren't taken as seriously as the tickers associated with the New York Stock Exchange. But a funny thing happened as the 1990s turned into the 2000s. Largely thanks to the explosive growth of Microsoft (MSFT) and Apple (AAPL) - both of which were listed on the Nasdaq exchange - the little tech-heavy exchange began to be recognized as the place where investors could participate in the technology evolution. The rest, as they say, is history. Little has changed in the meantime. The Nasdaq still is a technology-oriented exchange, and still home to some of the stock market's most rewarding names. So rewarding, in fact, that they have driven the Nasdaq composite to numerous fresh highs in 2018. Here's a rundown of 10 of the most compelling Nasdaq stocks. Some are familiar, some not so much. In all cases, though, these companies offer something special their peers don't. SEE ALSO: 25 Stocks Every Retiree Should Own
