There will be more to add on the FTSE 100 and the DAX a little later this morning, but suffice to say both indexes did set in place a negative outside day reversal on Friday and later on it was the same for the S+P 500. So, the S+P resumed live trade at a new record opening level of 6,121.43. It then swiftly set a new all time high at 6,128.18, before turning lower. The session low was set at 6,088.74.

There are two other main, non-technical reasons for that and they are a bad miss on the Chinese PMI data earlier and a series of fresh news wire report suggesting Trump is likely to impose 25% trade tariffs on Canada and Mexico.
