The Morning Look

Stock Market Overview: 

Futures are lower ahead of Thursday’s open as markets remain lower for the week.

Gary’s Thoughts: We expected to wake up from our let lagged fog to see a strong Europe and Asia overnight but nothing doing. As we mentioned last night, they are lagging badly. Not sure it is meaningful…but something to watch. Futures down a wee bit but that’s a no biggie after yesterday’s beta day.
