Read MoreHide Full Article

S&P futures saw aggressive selling last night after White House adviser Navarro made comments on a Fox interview. When asked a long a detailed question about the China trade deal, Navarro simply said “It’s over” and then when on to criticize China. Markets initially took these words as an indication that the trade deal was in jeopardy and sold off.

Futures were down over 1%, but the comments were walked back quickly and futures eventually bounced all the way back into the green.

Positive June PMI data out of Europe has helped futures accelerate higher, which will help stocks open nicely in the green.
