The Dow Jones 30 and the NASDAQ 100 both sold off during the trading session on Friday as the United States announced more tariffs against the Chinese, and then of course the Chinese retaliated. Because of this, it makes sense that a little bit of a “risk off” move was had going into the weekend, and I think that’s exactly what we are seeing on this chart.
